The University of Waterloo is world-renowned for its cooperative education program and it is a great way to get job experience related to your field of study while you are still in school. This gives a great advantage when students graduate.

This university had the stream I was interested in and had a co-op program where I can gain relevant work. It was close to my home and gave a decent scholarship to me based on my grades. As a result, I chose this university.

Waterloo has a good reputation for this program and is well known for its research. I was also looking at Waterloo because I had a sibling that attended Waterloo for their undergrad in a different program.

I chose this college because of the prestige and co-op opportunities. Co-op is a big factor because it allows for you to gain practical work experience and money to pay off student loans. Many Waterloo graduates land a job quickly after graduation.

Waterloo has a huge name in Software Engineering and AI. I wanted to work in an interdisciplinary field of SE and AI, so this place was the best fit for me. Furthermore, there is opportunities for good scholarships, lots of funds & grants, amazing professors in the field of SE, well structured programs, and top SE companies hire a lot of people from UWaterloo.

I chose this university because of its world-renowned engineering faculty and diversity. There are many specialization options in my program which will help me to focus on a particular field of study, i.e. AI/ML. Also, due to an enormous alumni network, there are many networking opportunities that can help in landing a job or an internship at good companies.

7.8 /10

The biggest reason was that my research interests matched my supervisors. Canada is a great country for research and innovation. System Design Engineering gives me the freedom to collaborate with other departments like the Knowledge Integration Department, The Waterloo Institute for Complexity and Innovation, etc.

The program provided matched exactly to my expectations. The university has a good reputation not in just rankings but also in terms of good profs. This was also fitting into my budget as other comparable universities in US are approximately double the cost.
