话题背景：This note is a sub note to Nomad ‘s famous note “ 关于澳洲”.So it is better to read his note first before read this one.Abbser who wish to go to Australia (especially Melbourne) to study could get some useful information here.I would like to give some personal experiences in this note. So this article is personal, specific, detailed and informal compared to the official web page of university.I will start with my course and my school----- master of architecture (urban architecture laboratory)
RMIT(royal Melbourne institute of technology)I have been Melbourne for about 2 weeks. Although my course does not start, I don’t even see my classmates; I would like to provide some rough information about this course. It is a very small studio course. We only have 4 students this year. 2 from Melbourne, one has Malaysia background, and I from Beijing. Last year there were only 4 students too. The leader of this studio is Shane Murry and Nigel Bertram. Shane is about 50 years old and Nigel is very young, I guess he is about 35 years old. The course is divided into 3 major projects carrying on 3 semesters. The first two projects will give each student a same original point and site upon which each student develop their own research point and design project. The last one is final project which students have freedom to select their own thematic and project. We have a large studio in an old building (compared to Australian history). Each week we will present our research process and have a comprehensive discussion with Shane and Nigel twice. The rest of time is free. It seems to be quite relaxing but actually is not. According to students last year, they feel really stressful about twice a week discussions with professors. And they describe the course as a one-year-more intensive course compared to other 2 years master course. However until now I still have no clear idea about how intensive this course would be. Except our research project, it seems to me that there is no other course ...
