Placement
The post-study placements are not that good. Very few companies arrive at the university for placement opportunities.
Great for research. The subjects were really great. The co-op options were really good to get real-life experience.
Placement
We have career fairs for all events. But especially for CS programs, they don't have many employers (only a few companies come to hire careers). Students have to search for jobs on their own on websites like LinkedIn, Indeed, Glassdoor etc.
Well, I am more interested in the field of Data Science. Since there is a lot of competition in the computer science field, Lakehead was the best option for me.
Placement
Placement depends on one's skill. The university organizes career fair every year, where various employers come and hire people in different domains.
Because Lakehead University blends academic excellence and opportunity with a rich variety of social and recreational activities. It is excellent in research and career opportunities.
First and foremost, the campus and location. I love Northern Ontario and it's wildlife. There is an overwhelming feeling of calm whenever I am in Thunder Bay from the moment I land, very different from the hustle and bustle of Toronto. Secondly, the faculty. I first met the faculty at a college/university fair in Toronto in my grade 12 year, and they were so nice and welcoming. They weren't condescending or judgmental and answered all my questions - unlike the other schools. Thirdly, I wanted to be out on my own. Thunder Bay is very far from my home and when I was coming here, that's what I needed.
Placement
I have had placements every year and they are good. There is not typically a repeat in any clinical placements, so we get a well-rounded placement educational experience over the course of 3 years. In the 4th year, we choose our own placements.
The location was appealing to me and I had family in the city if I needed help with anything. I also had friends in the city and knew the city well. I heard it was one of the best places for nursing as you get to start placements in year 1.
