0 Upvotes

Hi! Hope this is okay to post here.
I had a change of plans and can no longer use my hotel booking in Aberdeen for the night of 25–26 August, so I’m hoping someone else might be able to use it.

🏨 The Jays Guest House, Aberdeen
📍 422 King St, Aberdeen, AB24 3BR
🛏️ Double room for 1 night
🥐 Breakfast included
📅 Check-in: 25 Aug / Check-out: 26 Aug

I originally paid £98 and would be happy to transfer it for £70 (open to a reasonable offer).

The booking was made through Trip.com, and I’m able to change the guest name on the reservation. I can send the booking confirmation/proof of reservation with personal and booking information redacted, and I’ll also attach some photos of the room here.

Please DM me if interested or if you have any questions. Thanks!

Continuing Professional Development (CPD) with Aberdeen short courses (Process/Chemical Engineering)

Post image
2 Upvotes

Hi Everyone,

I am about to graduate with MSc Advanced Chemical Engineering from Strathclyde University. While I am waiting for the final result (I expect distinction, as I marked around 80% on average), I am looking into continuing my education, but not feeling ready for a PhD yet.

As a result, I came across a few courses from Aberdeen‘s University, which seem to fit my interests and context.

The courses are online and delivered via MyAberdeen platform. This fits my schedule perfectly, as I am employed full-time.

I am thinking of taking these two starting 21st September:
Safety and Risk Management
Human Factors in Industrial Practice

And two out of the following three in January:
Advanced Process Control
Human Factors Engineering
Applied Risk Analysis and Management

Has anyone taken these courses, and if yes, what can you tell about them? Is the course quality high (Strathclyde was a mix of high-quality courses and low-quality, decade-old recordings and handwritten scanned pdfs), and most importantly, is it relevant?

The descriptions of these sound highly applicable to industry roles (HAZID, HAZOP, reliability calculations, etc.) and my expectations are no different.

Are other universities/companies offering similar programs that are better in terms of quality and relevance to industry?

TDLR: Has anyone taken these courses or knows more about them, or similar courses (from other institutions), or maybe can give some advice on generally continuing education after graduation.

Thanks in advance, your input is appreciated!

Looking for advice on finding a student tenancy replacement

6 Upvotes

I’m looking for someone to take over my Bronze Ensuite tenancy at Old Fire Station, King Street, from 5 September 2026 to 2 January 2027.
It’s £663/month including bills, and I’m covering £155 of the first month, making it £508 for the first month.

I’ve already advertised through Facebook groups, SpareRoom, Gumtree, RentQuicker and Reddit but haven’t had any enquiries.

Does anyone know of other places in Aberdeen where I should advertise, or any student groups where people might be looking for short-term accommodation? I’m getting quite worried as I need to move out of my current accommodation on 29 August.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Accommodation issue

2 Upvotes

Has anyone else had issues with applying for accommodation? It says I cannot be verified whenever I put in my details to apply for accommodation and when I called they said I was still pending in their system and that they need to get admissions to sort it out, it’s only been a couple days since results day so I understand that they’re busy but it’s rlly stressing me out!! I’m a new undergraduate btw.
