Master of Engineering in Electrical and Computer Engineering - Batch of 2023
3.5
Balanced Review, If you have patience and hard-working attitude then Canada is the country for you.
Tips: Reach out to Professors and ask them for TA and RA. This will help you a lot in gaining experience and also earning more than minimum wage. If you are planning for Canada then have a high level of patience. Things go very slowly. You can hear after 4 months about an interview. University fees are very high. Make sure you know your budget and then make a decision.
Likes (Safety): University handled well during COVID. Even though classes were offline, all the precautions were maintained. They supplied enough support on health and hygiene. Exams were conducted online during COVID. Also, there were very few cases in Alberta compared to other provinces.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): The University of Calgary doesn't provide its students with any career support. They conduct career fair and information sessions, but it is always crowded, and you cannot meet with the employers. They only call a few companies which have offices in Alberta.

A diverse educational institution.
Tips: After moving here you have more responsibility and maturity. You develop a sense of responsibility where you have to work and earn for yourself and your family in a better way. Independence is what you learn. I am very much satisfied. It can be hard for some people as there is a huge cultural gap but it is easy to come around it.
Likes (Public transportation): Campus is about 3-4 kms from the city, easily accessible by public transportation. You can stay close to the university as well. Very affordable for students who have less income due to part-time jobs. They can get low income transit passes which is the cheapest.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): Depends on the type of work, but usually between 15-20 companies are available. Starting salary is 65,000-70,000 CAD/year depending on the different job descriptions. For instance, my field is masters in project management so that was my starting salary.

Good place to settle in, friendly people.
Tips: You will find lots of Indian students here, at least in graduate school. So I can safely assume that you won't face any cultural shift unless you are enrolled in some other field. There are almost no scholarships in engineering unless you are an MS student. However, there are bursaries available depending on your expenses and student income.
Likes (Permanent Immigration): I think Alberta is the best province if you are planning to get settled here. It has many immigrant-friendly programs for PR. It has lower tax rates and there are more opportunities here in the engineering field. If you love to live near nature then I think you won't find any other province as good as this.
Dislikes (Internships): Less direct internship opportunities are available for graduate students. Although the university has a dedicated department for career building most of its activities revolve around undergrads. As a graduate student, you are expected to work on your own.

Tips: Coming to a new foreign country meant adjusting to a new culture, but the friendly campus community made it smoother. I am very satisfied with my university and courses. This university provides a diverse and enriching academic experience. Plus studying in Canada is a joy due to its welcoming atmosphere and stunning nature around us.
Likes (Public transportation): Our university campus has good connections to the city through buses and a Train light rail. Public transportation here is affordable and efficient, especially with the pass for students. It's easy to get around the city for shopping and entertainment, making life at the University of Calgary more enjoyable.
Dislikes (Quality of faculty): At the university of Calgary professors in my department are friendly and easy to approach. We have a unique teaching method that includes a lot of hands-on learning, which I find very helpful. Our teaching faculty comes from all over the world, making our classes diverse and interesting.

Amazing city to be in and university is a great place to get a world exposure
Tips: I attended University of Calgary for Masters in Data Science and Analytics course. The course structure was good but when it comes to instructors for this course some are good but some are average. Also given it is a one year course it is fast-paced and you'll have a lot of assignments every week along with the projects and other deadlines. Lastly, internship is an important part of the program and don't expect the university to find one for you. You need to take the initiative to find your internship. Overall University has a good infrastructure and has all the facilities available for students. Also, Calgary is affordable when it comes to living expenses and safety is great.

Extraordinary experience. Very good college
Tips: The weather was so bad . So be careful and don't sit idle at free time, do some work. The part time jobs are more at that place so do any part time job . You will earn more money if you join in any IT field so be careful that you join in IT internship only.
Likes (Permanent Immigration): Once you settle in that place your life will be easier. If you settle in the country you will earn more money by regular periods. Time changes the money you get, and will be increased if you get permanent membership that is green card if you stay more years.
Dislikes (Value for money): The work you do and the money you get will not be sufficient. You will get money only if you join in any IT field. If you choose any other field you get the money but not enough. The prices of goods and any products will be slightly higher.

It has lowest fees, beautiful city and great university
Tips: Having good academic scores in previous study and at least 7 bands in IELTS with relatively experience if there is gap between admission. Calgary has good opportunities for work after studies and especially for civil engineering students there is least competition.
Likes (Permanent Immigration): In Alberta there is PNP program available so, it gives benefit to international students. Also in Calgary there is lot of corporate offices and MNC companies are available, they recruit students directly from universities for working as intern or full time employees.
Dislikes (Part time work): In this pandemic time everyone has lost their jobs and work , hence it takes time to heal that situation. While overcoming this COVID-19 situation every student has to work for their expenses and fees even after studying online. That's why students have to suffer for initial 3-4 months.

AUT gave me the best experience to grow professionally.
Tips: All incoming AUT students need to be aware that the workload for the courses there is substantial. It's not going to be a cakewalk, so to speak. There will be a lot of pressure to perform. That's not to say that there will be no time for fun, but it is definitely going to be necessary to plan. There's also the problem of keeping both studies and any part-time work they might be doing in order. I think it's possible to handle both. I was pretty glad I picked AUT.

Diverse university with great learning opportunities and growth.
Tips: We should know fluent English in the aspect of speaking, and also when and where to answer. There will also be a major impact on our lifestyles. I have received an accommodation scholarship for the student accommodation, which I applied for through the university website. New Zealand allows students to settle here after they have completed their course. They allow students to stay there for post-study visas up to three years after completing the course. If you can find a job in your field of study, that is also on the greenlist, then you are eligible for permanent residency. Overall, I am very satisfied with the university and with everything I have chosen so far, although it will also depend on the individual and on their chosen course of study.
Dislikes (Part time work): On-campus part-time jobs are a bit hard to get into, as there will be heaps of applications, however, off-campus jobs are comparatively easy depending on experience and connection. Most of the part-time jobs can be easily manageable with the academics, as the shift will be with our preference.

A transformative educational experience.
Tips: The transition was smooth since New Zealand is an English-speaking country. The people here are friendly and diverse, which made setting in easier. Unfortunately, I could not avail any scholarships as I was unaware of the opportunities available. To students seeking scholarships, I highly recommend checking the university website regularly and there is a deadline. You can also directly contact the scholarship office via email for guidance. Throughout my journey, I have taken on multiple roles, including Student Ambassador, RUOK Advisory as a part-time job, Student Editor, Peer-Reviewer, Volunteer and Entrepreneur. The university is highly supportive of student's needs, and I encourage future students to explore and utilize all available support systems to enhance their experience. Also, before choosing a country to study in, make sure to research the job market. Opportunities can fluctuate, and being informed about employment trends will help make a more strategic decision about the future. Overall, I am very satisfied with my university, course, and life in New Zealand, as I have gained valuable skills and grown both personally and professionally.
Likes (Value for money): The tuition fees are high but the facilities provided are really good. The classrooms, access to libraries, the latest study materials, practical approach to learning, some papers have exams though, and the student services and support system available make the expenditure worth it.
Dislikes (Internships): While there's a lot of guidance available for finding or applying to internships, getting one has been increasingly difficult due to rising competition. Platforms like Summer of Teach provide a great opportunity for paid internships in New Zealand. Internships are available in the related fields of study. Sometimes students must move to a different city within New Zealand to complete the internship.

Tips: There are scholarships that you can avail of at any point of time during your course. There is a considerable number of Indian and Indian food available, so not much of a cultural shift. There is a large number of international students including Chinese and Indians. You have to study yourself and lecturers will only teach assuming you have prior knowledge of the subject. You have to do your homework really well. Overall, I am quite satisfied with my course, university and the country.
Likes (Permanent Immigration): The chances of permanent settlement are really easy. You just have to follow the general immigration path. Given a chance, I might like to permanently immigrate for its peaceful environment and natural beauty. You need to have good references and a network here to land a job as the job market is tight but once you land the first job things get easier.
Dislikes (Public transportation): Transportation is well connected with regular buses at small intervals but the cost of transportation is too high even with student discounts. However, you get a travel pass limit of 50 dollars per week. As an international student that cost seems too high.

Tips: The university experience is a lot different from what I had in India. The assignments are very practical, and there is help whenever you ask for it. I availed a scholarship from the Faculty of Arts and Culture which added NZD 5000 towards my fees. I'm very satisfied with the experience.

Dislikes (Public transportation): The campus is well connected with the rest of the city via trains and buses. However, public transport is quite expensive, and trains and buses are either often late or get cancelled at the last moment. While students do receive a discount, the expenses are still not very affordable.

My transformative experience at AUT.
Tips: Coming from a Cambridge board and A Level background I was somewhat familiar with the Western education system. However, adapting to university life in a new country had its challenges. Since I arrived in NZ I have been pursuing my Master's in Engineering while maintaining a full-time job. One of the most notable cultural shifts was the difference in communication style. I found that people here tended to be more direct and informal, which was quite different from the more reserved and formal interactions I was accustomed to. Additionally, social norms around collaboration and group work were different. Teamwork was emphasized and I had to adapt to expressing my ideas more openly in discussions. There were challenges the transition has been enriching and I am fully satisfied with the experiences.

I'm immensely satisfied with my course, university, and the country. I made so many friends, the teaching team is really great, and the country is beautiful and the people are too.
Likes (Student Life): I get to pick my class timings, and all my classes are flexible, so that's the best thing about university life for me. I usually go to university when I have classes, which are usually around 16 hours every week. There are various clubs all around campus, and you can join them whenever you'd like. There are RUOK advisors who check up on students around campus and support them. There are ECMS, sports, math, Compsci, and quite a lot of other clubs. These clubs and events around campus gave me an opportunity to connect with people and make new friends at every event. 
Dislikes (Indian Food): There are different kinds of restaurants around, and most of the places serve various cuisines, so there are heaps of options. Also, some places offer student discounts or have special combos for students. It's usually about 15 - 25 Dollars for a person. I prefer cooking meals at home, but there are some really good options if I want to eat out.

Tips: The University provides with good exposure and opportunities to mingle with students from different places. I had applied for a scholarship before my arrival unfortunately, I couldn't get it. Many of the recent batch (February intake) students received scholarships for accommodation close to the campus. The University, course and country are good. The 3 year stay back option is really helpful for the students.
Likes (Safety): There are access cars for students to access the university facilities during weekends. There are study rooms that are pre-booked and are accessible during weekends too. People here are generally friendly however, there are reports of increasing crime activities from different parts of the city.
Dislikes (Student Life): Students pursuing PG courses do not spend much time at the University apart from attending lectures or preparing assignments. I had lectures for 2 hours every weekday in the first semester. The final semester comprises just a project with only once a week appointments with the project supervisors. A lot of events are organised by different clubs such as Students Associations, Employability Clubs etc. There are also events related to festivals such as Diwali, Onam etc.

Good college with multi cultural diversity and part time opportunities.
Tips: Students should know that adjusting to the time zone can be difficult for a week. I availed 2 scholarships one academic and one for accommodation. I am fully satisfied with the University course and the beauty of NZ. However, the rent is expensive in the city but cheaper on the outskirts and have a good variety of cuisines and a good climate throughout the year.
Likes (Post study jobs): AUT has good networking and connections to the industry, no idea about Sponsor Visas for work but what I have seen is most of the companies require a permanent visa or at least citizenship to be considered to work there, there are multiple roles offered and good salary packages at least for the technology domain.
Dislikes (Part time work): Getting part time work is difficult compared to getting actual work. Managing part time with studies is easy since we are only allowed to work 20 hours max in a week unless it's a semester break where you can work 40, and the average payout is anywhere from 23-30 dollars per hour.

A good place to kick start your international education.
Tips: NZ is a wonderful place in general. So adjusting was not a problem. Finding accommodation is tedious so I suggest international students to opt for university accommodation for the first semester. There are good scholarships on the AUT website. It keeps getting updated regularly.
Likes (Permanent Immigration): For Masters the post study work visa options are attractive. Post that getting residence is also simpler compared to countries like US or UK. They also offer good visitor visa options for dependents. The student's spouse also gets a work visa till the time the student is studying.
Dislikes (Value for money): ROI is comparatively less for the course. The salary for jobs after the course is in the average range, especially for international students. It is however good if anyone plans to take up a Ph.D. after Master since AUT has good research programmes. A few courses are interesting as well.

The college was great, but the people you meet and the journey you follow will make huge difference.
Tips: Intention plays a prominent role in selecting the course and college. Selecting any university does not have much impact on education, but it certainly has an impact on the circle you surround yourself with, which will shape the future of each individual. Getting into the right groups will be hugely beneficial and vice versa. It is challenging to get scholarships, but you can try on the official college website.
Likes (Permanent Immigration): If the steps are taken correctly and you secure a job in big4 then permanent immigration is a piece of cake. It takes only 1 master's degree and 1 year of NZ experience to get permanent immigration. Getting a job would be easier by reaching out to the consultant companies and it is important you never pay a penny for the consultant to get a job. If they ask for money, please ignore and avoid those people.
Dislikes (Internships): Coming from India with no experience in any job makes it harder to navigate any internships. Chances of exploitation by the fellow indians. There are some paid internship programs where you pay for the experience. The best way would be to go to companies you are interested in and ask the managers for the opportunities.

Tips: There are scholarships available for AUT students. When you apply to the University shortly, they will send you a scholarship link in a few days. You can apply for it. Also you can get a scholarship for student accommodation, i.e Uni lodge. This country and the University are very nice. New country will initially make you homesick, but you will get used to it and in the end start loving it. Quiet and beautiful place to live in. I am 100 % satisfied with uni, course and country. Finding a part time job here is hard and you'll have a long struggle to get the main job after your studies as well. But you will get it done. There is a struggle, but the reward is very fruitful.
Likes (Quality of faculty): The faculty is top class. Very knowledgeable and will help you a lot in your studies. Most of them will solve your doubt. Many Indian, Kiwi, British and African origin faculties, very diverse. You can email them your doubts and freely ask them. Only one faculty member is not very approachable as he's strict and doesn't welcome your point of view. Will chose debate rather than making you understand. His teaching is good but he's not open to feedback. The rest of the faculty are really good. There are both online classes and offline classes held at the university. Slides are provided on your Canvas app. Assignments are easy and a few subjects will actually help you learn some software.
Dislikes (Internships): From my point of view, I think you will only grab an internship if you have a proper connection with the people in the industry. Through reference and through hard work. Uni doesn't actually help you get one, your hard work does. You have to visit meetups and meet people who are already working in the industry and put yourself in front of them as a professional and communicate with them. You will surely crack an internship.

Postgraduate Diploma in Business Management - Batch of 2020

A fruitless expensive adventure.
Tips: Given the current conditions the move isn't worth it. Better to invest the money elsewhere. Part time job hunting isn't supported and neither is full time job hunting after the course. I would have much rather preferred to have invested the money in the market or opened up a business with it which would've yielded better results.
Dislikes (Student Life): Covid hit as soon as my student life began. Although the university held online classes, there weren't many opportunities to interact with and build relationships with our professors. No activities or guidance were provided to students during this crisis.
