The First Year Engineering Learning Centre (Hawken Engineering Building 50, Room C201) is a multi-purpose collaborative space to enhance the experience for Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) single and dual degree students.
The learning space has a relaxed, contemporary design to encourage student interaction, learning and teamwork. The centre promotes student networks and helps to support and smooth the transition from high school to university, and is a place for BE(Hons) students to call 'home'.

Code Clinic casual academics are not tied to any particular course but instead are able to provide help in a wide range of courses, typically first and second year courses offered within EECS (not just software engineering).
These are typically courses that start with the prefix CSSE, INFS, DECO and COMP.
Code Clinic casual academics provide additional help for EECS courses, particularly at the first and second levels. This help is not intended as a replacement for course activities such as lectures and tutorials.
The kind of help given is mostly of a high-level nature, such as:
- how to approach an assignment,
- how to decompose a problem,
- how to approach debugging,
- getting a handle on theory/practice.
Code Clinic casual academics are not there to debug student's assignment code for them, but may help students in thinking about how to approach an assignment or in providing guidance on how they can debug their own code.
Code Clinic casual academics will not be able to provide assistance on an EECS course they are currently enrolled in, but will direct students seeking help to one of the other casual academics.
During the semester, they can typically be found in General Purpose South Building 78 Room 221.
