Hello all, I have been accepted to Ottawa and Carleton both for civil engineering co-op, I was wondering if i could get some opinions on which might be the better choice! I have heard Carleton has a better social community, better administration and a focus on engineering. I have also read that Ottawa puts a lot of money into their engineering programs and has an extremely high employment rate after graduation. A couple things to note is that I have received a $4,000 scholarship to Carleton and nothing from Ottawa. Also, my uncle works for a large engineering firm and has told me that if I do get a civil engineering degree he can probably get me in the door. I understand that Ottawa has the 'big' name and was wondering if any professionals/ people could give me their view on a student applying for a job from either university. I would like to hear your opinion! let me know the pros and cons of your experience with these universities!
