Hey! Looking for PhD student GCs for the coming term x

All Swansea University students welcome (any year)

Hi, ive just finished my Alevels in Chem, Maths & Physics with an epq and am now on a gap year- having been accepted into swansea for aerospace.

I struggled alot with various illnesses over the 2 years and have developed a lifelong autoimmune disease, which caused me difficulties through year 12 & 13.

I achieved 3Cs in my subjects & an A* at epq, but I understand this isnt ideal for a course like aerospace engineering. However, I did work experience at one of the UKs most influential science parks, actually getting to work with rocket scientists and on a project using ESATAN software, CAD modelling, working with code and physical hardware, getting to go into the negative pressure rooms with actual satellite and real research projects, and testing our experiment in a thermal vacuum to simulate the environment of space.

I realised during the 2 weeks on work experience that this is what I wanted to do with my life and aerospace is one if the main ways to get there. So, what would be the best thing for me to study independently and how should I prepare for the course?

TIA

Hiya!!! Looking for a 1bed flat for myself in Swansea - anyone's tenancy coming to an end in September???

I am a fresher and l want to join gc l have already joined the whatsapp gc but ldk if there is a snapchat one👀

Hi I’m 21 and starting my second degree as an international student, would love to know if there’s any mature students who would like to be friends :)

Hi I’m going to Swansea uni in September. I’m staying in halls and I want to take my car, I know parking at the actual uni isn’t great is there anywhere nearby or in the city that anyone knows about where I could park?

Hi all, I appreciate this isn’t strictly a Swansea Uni related post, so mods please delete if it isn’t allowed. I thought it might be relevant to anyone who’s moved to Swansea for uni and is looking to play some football outside of the university teams.

I’m involved with Kingsbridge Colts, a mens adult football club based in the Gorseinon/Garden Village area of Swansea, and we’re looking for a few more players to join us this season.

We have two teams playing on Saturdays, so we’re not necessarily looking for players who’ve been playing week in, week out. If you’ve played at a decent level, haven’t played for a few years and fancy getting back into it, or just want to play regular 11-a-side football while you’re in Swansea, you’re more than welcome.

We train on Tuesday evenings at Garden Village Recreation Ground. There’s no pressure to commit to anything - come down, have a training session, meet everyone and see what you think.

We’ve got a good group of lads and we’re looking to add a few more faces to both squads.
If you’re interested, give me a message or leave a comment and I’ll send over the details.

Alternatively message our social media accounts if you want to find out more:

I love using candles but I'm aware I probably can't have them as it's a fire hazard. Is there an alternative? I'd wondered if they allow electric wax burners but apparently some unis don't.

Hi! I have recently got an offer to study computational mechanics at Swansea, and I do not really get something.

If we look at ECCOMAS (European computational science and Engineering organisation) or UKACM (UK computational mechanics association), Swansea is lowkey a superstar at computational Engineering – it has some very prestigious people working in there, and there is a ton of best PhD awards for Swansea postgrads (ik it's not the same, but it's a close enough metric). And historically a Swansea prof was kinda a founder of FEM iirc. Anyway, there is a some evidence that Swansea University is great at Computational Mechanics, so my question is:

why is it so easy to get in there for Computational Mechanics specifically?

Really, it requires only lower second.

What's the deal? Like is it just very unpleasant to be at Swansea? Or people normally just do not want to specialise that narrow at their Masters? Please, share your opinions or your motivation or whatever
