Western University - UWO Speciality : Computer Science
programme: Computer Engineering

In the computer engineering program, there was very poor program organization. The courses were jumping from one field of content to another with no cohesive structure between any courses. Engineering content was largely self-taught as you will be saving time and learning better when not in lecture. Western at large has its pros and cons. The school is large and can be very exciting in the earlier undergraduate years. As you get more familiarized, I found the city of London to not have much to offer. The winters are long and dark. Expect the administration to find a way to charge you top dollar for everything they possibly can, as they are very very money oriented. More so than other universities I believe. For example, I was required to buy business textbooks brand new from them in order to pass the course. After 14 grand in tuition a year for 4 years of engineering, they still charge you $20 for your iron ring. Want proof of enrollment for banking and tax purposes? That costs money too.
