Master of Engineering in Electrical and Computer Engineering - Batch of 2024
4.4
Prerequisites to adapt well and basic requirements.
Tips: Be very active in terms of studying, and be on top of your courses and assignments. You will feel the cultural difference, so be prepared to need some time to adjust to your life here. It is a great university with lots of courses offered. Plan your term courses selection way ahead keeping your work permit and specialisation requirements in mind so as to select the needed course in the term offered and plan it according to courses offered based on which term the professor is available. All this information is available on the University Website. The healthcare infrastructure here is not very good, carry your basic needed medicine along with a doctor's prescription from India. It is a cold country, so be well prepared in terms of warm clothes and gear. Also, bring basic utensils if you are planning to cook your meals, you might not immediately find the kind of utensils you use back home here. Also if wanting to stay off campus, start looking for accommodation well in advance through the Facebook marketplace or other WhatsApp groups present. Living within a 1.5 km of radius University will be a better choice in terms of time spent and winters.
Likes (Post study jobs): We don't need a sponsorship visa to work. Can apply for a Post Graduate Work permit, which has a set of guidelines on the duration of the course, field of study and an English Proficiency IELTS exam which makes you eligible to apply. Stay updated with the guidelines from the government regarding this. You can apply for Post graduate work permit once you are just 2 - 3 months away from graduation. Apply well in advance, once you are eligible as it takes time to get approved.
Dislikes (Part time work): Too many students but too few vacant jobs available. Sometimes job might not hire you as other experienced people are already working. However, start looking for it well in advance. It is unannounced on the University Website when they are hiring for what and which positions. Keep an open eye on it.

University of Waterloo is a great place to study
Tips: The University of Waterloo is indeed a great place to study for someone passionate about expanding their knowledge as well as network. Based on my experience and things I heard, there are trends to zero chances of getting a scholarship for the MEng ECE programme. The programme is a little bit expensive but if you are privileged enough to spend that much without having financial pressure then it is worth it. If you are enthusiastic about the field you are pursuing and love learning new things, this might be the right place for you.
Likes (Safety): In the Kitchener/Waterloo region, I feel a majority of the population are students. And people are genuinely nice with helping nature as well as the public transport system is also good to some extent. So there is less safety concern compared to other cities in Canada/US.
Dislikes (Indian Food): Being a vegetarian who doesn't even eat eggs, it is quite difficult to eat outside because there are very less options available in most restaurants regardless of some Indian food chain. But it would be costly. So it is better to cook at home and maintain a healthy diet.

Great place for modern technology.
Tips: Before coming here students must be prepared for which courses they are going to take. A prior work experience might help in getting a better internship. Connect with professors well. Connect with people of similar interests for studies. Look for RA's and use the job portals effectively.
