University of New Brunswick - Good for Computer Engineering?

[josias]

First, I know that the forum is about Computer Science, but it will only take a few seconds to you guys answer my question.

I'm starting the undergraduate program of Computer Engineering at UNB this fall. I did a lot of research about universities here in Canada, and I decided to enter in this one.

Does someone know anything about UNB? If it's a good university, any kind of information?

PS: I'm not canadian, I just arrived here 1 month ago.

Thanks!

Personally I don't know of anyone at UNB, and I haven't heard anything of that University.

Though you've said you've done a lot of research about Universities in Canada. So what are some of your own thoughts about the school?

I did go to UNB for Shad Valley, but that's a high-school level summer camping thing. The only thing I know about the school is that the campus is incredibly hilly...as is the entire town around it. For some reason, they elected to build an entire city on a 30-degree incline. It will be easier getting to certain classes than others.

tony, most of the part of my research was unfortunately based on online rankings. I know that this isn't the best way of knowing the universities, but it was the only way.

The fees was also a very important thing to consider, since I'm a international student and I have to pay twice.
