• Both are the best.

  Both Waterloo and Toronto are the best uni for computer science!

• rotman or ivey

  If you want the best in Canada, the choice is easy: Rotman or Ivey. Some would consider Schulich among the best as well. You can forget McGill, UBC etc, don't waste your time.
  
  For finance/i-banking, Rotman is probably stronger, although if you want to stay in Canada it really doesn't matter whether you go to Rotman or Ivey. Ivey's advantage (or disadvantage, depending on your view) is that it's only one-year. Yes, it's in a crappy town, but you'll only have to spend one year there, and I hear the nite life is great.

  Maq,
  what you are saying makes sense only for undergrad studies. Very different rules apply to graduate studies.
  It would be naive for somebody to choose a graduate school based on somebody's else experience. However, it would be very wise to look at other people's experiences and views and see if what they are saying is just whining or there may be something more to it.
  
  Very few research labs actually do useful work and prepare students for the industry/academia. One such lab is http://www.psi.utoronto.ca/ How do you choose what (grad) school to go to? Try "big guns" (those I mentioned in my previous post) - they have reputation to defend. Small players have nothing to defend and to them, you are only a number that they will use in their grant applications - they are only money masters (!).

• I need the opinion of a computer science student.

  Hi,
  
  I have been issued offers of admission from Wilfred Laurier University and University of Windsor for the following programs:
  
  - Honours (BCS) Computer Science from WLU
  - Honours (BCS) Computer Science with software engineering specialization from University of Windsor
  
  Which one would you recommend? and why?

  bysic 25 Feb 2009, 03:51 - Report

• Marco

  I dont know much about either university (and would probably skip both). Does WLU offer graduate level programs in CS? If not, then it would be enough to disqualify it and in that case, I would choose the University of Windsor.
  
  Good Luck!

  Acadia continues to have some innovative computer science programs. Besides Bachelor of Computer Science (BCS), there are BCS Specializations in E-Commerece, Environmental Informatics, and Mobile and Ubiguitous Computing. See cs.acadiau.ca

• Jodrey School of Computer Science

  Comp. Sci. at Acadia is pretty good. I attended several years ago. Small class sizes, fair and informative profs, good prep for industry and grad school. I liked the being able to work on a significant research project and help to write a paper as an undergrad. .. Tim

• McGill is Superior

  To share my experience:
  
  I chose McGill over Queens, U-Toronto as well as McMaster. It was a great decision...The problem with University of Toronto is you are just a number... too big and too impersonal... Queens is all fluff with no diversity and a severly lacking graduate school.
  
  McGill has problems too (budgetery mostly) but in the US it has a phenomenal reputation... as an example, when I called to inquire about applying to Harvard, the head of the admissions faculty to the grad program responded by saying: "We love receiving applicants from McGill... they are really strong". In the US, McGill is well known with a solid reputation, particularly in the Northeast... some 10-15% of Mcgill student body is american!
  
  Ps. Waterloo is undeniably a great school for engineering though... even better than McGill... although Mcgill is no slouch either... this one year, a company from Boston came to mcgill and sucessfully recruited 80% of their graduating class in electrical engineering.

• CAN SOMEONE HELP ME OUT

  WHY DOES COMPUTER SCIENCE CONSIDER AS A MULTI-DISCIPLINARY FIELD?

  MOSHOOD 17 May 2009, 11:29 - Report

• Career

  A good school is not only defined it's educational abilities, but also by how well its students perform after graduation, and the overall learning experience.
  
  UofT and McGill are but situated in large cities, which means that students will receive a lot opportunities, social life and culture. This is a major upside.
  
  Name is also very important, it's in fact the first thing an employer would look at. Needless to say UofT and McGill has the history and reputation. A lot of major companies are not based in Canada, as a result they care more about international reputation. Schools like Waterloo and Queens are relatively unknown.
  
  Computer science might not be the best idea right now. One should always choose a major close to engineering. Such as computer and electrical engineering.
  
  Computer wise, UofT and Waterloo is the most competitive. UofT of course has the advantages mentioned above, and Waterloo has the enticing co-op option.
  
  Downsides:
  UofT tends to be more traditional, they will teach you a lot of the theoretical stuff, since UofT's research area is supposedly one of the best in North America. You'll be going through a lot hardship. As informed by friends of mine. I cannot confirm nor deny of course
  
  Waterloo is in a small town. Most of my friends who went to Waterloo complain about boredom. Many of my friends also feel that the co-op programs were not as good as they were led to believe, and that Waterloo seemed to sugar coat it to attract students. (I cannot confirm nor deny of course).
  
  My personal advice? If you are given the choice, go with UofT. I heard that many companies go to UofT to hire students. Summer job opportunities are endless. Being in Toronto itself opens up your eyes. I would say the same for McGill, however the need to know the French language is a major down side.
