• Major company who hire students from my department are Energy and Oil Companies like Syncrude Canada Ltd., Husky Energy, and Nova Chemicals.

• I find my accommodation through website. My monthly rent is CAD$ 600 which includes heat and water and the apartment was fully furnished like they provided the gas stove, fridge, oven, dishwasher and a separate laundry space with washing machines. I don’t face any difficulty in finding accommodation.
• For future I would recommend join as many groups as you can so that you can interact with your future roommates and get to know about them. My apartment has a drive of 10 min from the university. Most of the Indian students stays in an apartment.

My university does not offer on-campus placements but there are regular career fests happening which do give opportunity to students to meet with the recruiters from different highly esteemed companies.

Considering education quality and fees, this was the best possible university. The college does provide good competition and educational facilities and also good friends which honestly I'm lucky to have. So I would say my experience has been pretty good.

I am not really sure cause I was not provided this kind of opportunity and since the Covid hit the whole world so badly, it will further take couple of years to regain/built new environment for students placement in research opportunities.

It was a good experience as a whole. But the major drawback is not having proper guidance on getting scholarships or grants.

There are career fairs every 3 months. Many students get offers for job.

I think the your experience in college is what you make of it. If you go in knowing exactly what you want to do with your career and use college as a means of getting there, then you may miss out on campus activities, meeting new people, networking, developing yourself, etc. it’s not a bad route to go because it gives you focus but there may be things that you may wish you would’ve taken the time out to experience while in college.

The placements processes are excelling and the hiring equally. There are several famous company developer clubs for computing science. There are also several networking clubs that act as mediators and a mode of network connection for students and companies thus making placements and internships more accessible, easier and plenty.

It’s a fun, educational experience. Definitely gets stressful around exam season and before the submission of huge assignments but the winding down is just as enjoyable and there is always something going on in the university that helps you wind down.

Excellent , you have to grind So people who strive are placed in amazon Vancouver Microsoft SAP IBM Boeing Binance And many more.

University is really good . Only if you study really hard. You will ace out like a shining star, mark my words By studying hard. I really mean that to the core.

For Post graduates, we have to find jobs individually. But our faculties would be more than happy to help us in that. So that won't be an issue excluding recession.

My University experience is good. My first 2 months were worst, later its a piece of cake. I've applied for 6 Universities. Got admitted in all of them. But Ualberta is ranked #4 in Canada. So, i choose this.

Excellent opportunity.

Edmonton is not an extremely good place for IT industry... But you can always apply outside the province or apply jobs in the US.
