- High knowledgeable lecturers who teaches so well
- Curriculum is very good and well planned
- So much of practical knowledge by having many projects instead of just exams
Dislikes
- Classes for each course was in different building and the campus is huge and hard to walk
- Some of the lectures was bit difficult to understand in the beginning as the course was little intense and hard to catch but later with some self study it was fine
- Lecturers English accent differs by each and that was difficult in the beginning but later it was fine again
Course Curriculum
- Difficulty level of the course was bit high as the curriculum was intense with so much detailed concepts that took time to learn and understand. It was more of practical assignments rather than theoretical exams etc.
- Positive about the courses is that I got to learn a lot and explore a lot and negative is that it took time to understand and get the assignments done but got better in time
- Depends on the course and the average is around 25 students per course
- There were 50% of Indian students in almost all the courses
Fees
- Fees are charged per semester and it was around $8000-$9000 CAD in 2020 & 2021.
- I chose to stay on my own by renting an apartment and sharing it with 2 others.
- The rent for an individual was $350 CAD and $80 for the utilities and WiFi and the food and other expenses were around $400.
- It’s good to do part time and take care of our expenses and I did Teaching Assistant part time which helped me to manage my expenses and I got this job in my university itself
Likes
- Location of the campus. It is located in downtown which allows you to travel freely.
- Fee-structure: because of per-credit fee structure it allows student to take course as per their capacity.
- Co-ops opportunities allows a student to do an internship which will benefit them in future.
Dislikes
- Lecture time length, sometime lectures are 3 hours long.
- Lecture time, some lecture starts in evening and over at late night.
- Expensive living cost around university.
There are many Facebook groups and WhatsApp groups where you can find the rental unit but it is usually suggested to come before and search by yourself to avoid scams which are very common here and do not pay any amount in advance unless and until you see the unit.
Likes
- University of Ottawa is one of the highest research output universities in Canada.
- The learning is mostly practical instead of theoretical in form if assignments real life projects, including group and individual work.
- The university takes efforts to engage various programs like career fairs, networking events, hackathon etc.
Dislikes
- The university dining does not necessarily offer food that relishes your palette (especially Indian)
- Getting TA positions can be tough sometimes since there are no Scholarship options for non research based programs.
- The learning is mostly self directed and not necessarily guided by the professors as personal attention.
Course Curriculum
- The courses are competitive and demanding considering the self learning involved in the delivery. It was mostly 80% practical that involved projects and research and 20% theoretical.
- Positive is, you can get a TA position in Computer related courses as well as electronics and electrical courses. Negatives being the selection of coop is very random. It literally has no basis of selection whereas in CS, mostly everyone gets a Coop.
Fees
- The tuition fees are based on the number of credits. In my course, it was mandatory to complete 30 credits. Every course is 3 credits and costs around 4000 dollars so 30 credits are 40000 CAD.
- I did not opt for university accommodation but I stayed in a shared space nearby which was 500 CAD a month. A private space or room may go upto 900-1000 CAD a month
- Credit based which you pay before each semester starts upto 1000 dollars a month

- I received admission offer from this university and global ranking is good.
- The university is one of the top rated institutes and thus students get good exposure in terms of research, jobs etc. There is a huge range of courses to choose from based on student's interests. The Infrastructure and Legacy of the university is awesome.
Dislikes
- Sometimes there is over emphasis over research candidates than course based candidates, so the number of scholarships, teaching assistant positions etc. are more suitable for research based students than course based.
Course Curriculum
The coursework is designed to be very relevant to the industry requirements and latest updates. The industry exposure is given through various industry projects and Co-op opportunities.
Fees
The fees is based on number of credits taken in particular term. So, for one term if a student is taking 3 courses then fees would be approximate 10500 CAD.
Course Curriculum
The course gives you good exposure to the managerial aspects of an organization. It was all team tasks and gives you good learning.
Fees
11,000 Canadian dollars per one semester. Number of semesters you take to complete the course depends on you.
Course Curriculum
Course syllabus are good and it’s very useful and we will be able to learn a lot from that! Choosing a course matters a lot
Fees
10000$ per term
Course Curriculum
MEng is a theoretical program with no industrial or real-life exposure. However, with MASc, you might get practical knowledge a lot.
Fees
The fees are around $13,000 a semester. For MEng, you need to make a minimum of 3 semesters.
Course Curriculum
The course is really good and practical. It might be difficult for some people to adapt at first. But once one gets going it's a smooth process. There are a variety of subjects from which a person can choose whatever he wants to study as per his liking. So overall a great pool of knowledge.
The University of Ottawa is a really good university for Civil Engineering. My major is in structural engineering and the university is very well known for that. The course structure is really flexible. Also, there are a lot of choices in courses for structural engineering.
Course Curriculum
I am not a huge fan of having to take courses from all aspects of business, such as management, Human Resources, organizational behaviour, marketing, social context of business, etc. I am a numbers person so taking courses with little to no numbers or formulas significantly lowers my averages and CGPA
Fees
The fee structure is good, students receiving OSAP get an extended deadline to pay. There are a few fees you can opt out of. There are numerous internal scholarships available that students can apply for as well as numerous scholarships awarded to students without the need to apply for them. The university also offers a merit scholarship
