If you've ever wanted to theorycraft solutions to problems for a far-flung island in the middle of nowhere (aka. Saibai) in a big group project, this unit is for you. Alternatively, if you want to be an engineer, ignore the choice, as you have to do this anyway. The lecturers are genuinely useless, so if you skip them (or better, plan your group meetings then) you will not miss out on much. Assignments are not well worded and confusing, making them extremely time consuming. This is basically a drawn out version of GENG1000 - which is done in a week. At least you'll walk out of the unit knowing how to drop an egg and program and robot car with Scratch coding.

after I had enrolled in this unit, I was being monitored by 4 different government agencies. my wife found out I was doing GENG1010 and left me with my children. in the divorce I lost my house and car. when I phoned my mother and told her my situation she suddenly died due to a stroke. I was then arrested for manslaughter. I am currently in my jail cell as we speak. on the bright side I learnt how to program a robotic car (propaganda).

The group project was so hard and time-consuming, especially if not everyone in the group contributed equally to it. The assignment task sheets and marking keys were always extremely vague, making assignments much harder than they needed to be. Absolutely horrible unit. (would give 0 stars if possible).

My favourite unit in semester 1, ewb challenge was good, partly cause I had a good group, Jack was a legendary tutor

Most useless unit in the world
