They visited the campus and spoke with a professor who recommended completing 3 years at Seneca and then finishing the last 2 years at a university like U of T.

Im still not 100% sure on engineering, last year i was set on civil engineering but took a year off and changed my mind too mechanical as it was more broad.

I have accepted this program from seneca college in Toronto and was wondering what other engineers/professionals think of the program?
