----------------------------------- 1clock2 Tue Apr 07, 2009 8:06 pm should i go UT or UW ----------------------------------- I have the offer from UW Software Engineering and UT Computer Engineering. And i am planning to study MBA in canada or us. I personally wanna go ut more, but all people around me is telling me to go UW because of the coop program. Any advise will be helpful. Thx. ----------------------------------- Prabhakar Ragde Tue Apr 07, 2009 8:43 pm RE:should i go UT or UW ----------------------------------- They are quite different programs, SE and CE, so think about what it is you want to study. If you want to go to UT more, then go to UT. They have a version of co-op called PEY. ----------------------------------- 1clock2 Wed Apr 08, 2009 10:28 am RE:should i go UT or UW ----------------------------------- i want to study internet, such as webpage or network etc. ----------------------------------- Tony Wed Apr 08, 2009 8:12 pm RE:should i go UT or UW ----------------------------------- Either program will do you well. Computer Engineering is somewhat closer to the hardware than Software Engineering is; but I personally know of grads from both programs that are getting essentially the same jobs. ----------------------------------- 1clock2 Thu Apr 09, 2009 1:00 pm Re: RE:should i go UT or UW ----------------------------------- Either program will do you well.

Though with PEY + working in the summers, you can easily par that. ----------------------------------- 1clock2 Thu Apr 16, 2009 10:18 pm RE:should i go UT or UW ----------------------------------- Is that hard to get into PEY? Can PEY use as my MBA experience? My parents thinks waterloo's softeware is much better UOT, they wanna make me go there. sigh ----------------------------------- Tony Thu Apr 16, 2009 10:25 pm RE:should i go UT or UW ----------------------------------- PEY would be the same as co-op in that respect -- it would depend on where you work. ----------------------------------- darshan Wed Apr 22, 2009 9:02 am RE:should i go UT or UW ----------------------------------- I would say both schools offer competitive programs and you should now check out the campus and other factors that come into play when making the decision. i.e.) residence (and living costs away from home), campus, friends, professors, etc. ----------------------------------- md Wed Apr 22, 2009 9:42 am Re: RE:should i go UT or UW ----------------------------------- i want to study internet, such as webpage or network etc. Which is not SE or CE. If this is truely what you are interested in then I think you will find that neither program is what you are looking for. ----------------------------------- Tony Wed Apr 22, 2009 3:34 pm RE:should i go UT or UW ----------------------------------- I think the concept of what "the internet" is, from OP's perspective, is very much open to interpretation.
