Big plans for Aussie land !

Hello everybody...

My name is Armando, I live in Mexico an currently about to finish my last year in Highschool ( 6 months left )...

Under my research for colleges and universities through out the world, I found that the University of Sydney, Australia offers just what I wanted... A combined program in Bachelor in Mechatronics Engineering and a Bachelor in Physics.

My parents are still not a 100% sure wether this is a good uni, or if its just crappy.

Any info on this regards will be greatly appreciated.

You might be interested in a program that my university (Lock Haven University of Pennsylvania) recently created in cooperation with Penn State University (also Pennsylvania).

They call it the 3-2 Engineering Degree. You basicly take 3 years of classes at Lock Haven University majoring in Physics and then you transfer to PSU for 2 years majoring in a Engineering field of your choice. You end up with 2 Bachelors degrees. Heres a list of the engineering fields available

And here's the Physics department homepage

I'm currently a freshmen at LHU majoring in Computer Science. I plan changing to a dual major in CompSci and Physics after my Sophmore year.

If you have any questions about LHU feel free to ask.

Hello Armando,

That sounds like an exciting opportunity for you to study in Australia! The University of Sydney is a highly reputable institution and their combined program in Mechatronics Engineering and Physics sounds like a great option. It's always important to do your own research and make sure it aligns with your interests and goals, but from what I've heard, the University of Sydney has a strong academic program and a vibrant student community. I wish you all the best in your future endeavors in Aussie land!
 
TL;DR Summary: I want to do a PhD in applied math but I hate group theory, is this a big problem? Hello, I am a second-year math and physics double major with a minor in data science. I just finished group theory (today actually), and it was my least favorite class in all of university so far. It doesn't interest me, and I am also very bad at it compared to other math courses I have done. The other courses I have done are calculus I-III, ODEs, Linear Algebra, and Prob/Stats. Is it a...
Yesterday, 9/5/2025, when I was surfing, I found an article The Schwarzschild solution contains three problems, which can be easily solved - Journal of King Saud University - Science ABUNDANCE ESTIMATION IN AN ARID ENVIRONMENT https://jksus.org/the-schwarzschild-solution-contains-three-problems-which-can-be-easily-solved/ that has the derivation of a line element as a corrected version of the Schwarzschild solution to Einstein’s field equation.
