Toronto Metropolitan University (formerly Ryerson) emphasizes practical learning experiences and encourages students to apply their knowledge in real-world scenarios. By engaging in hands-on projects, internships, and cooperative education programs, I have gained valuable practical skills that are essential for success in my future career. This emphasis on experiential learning has not only enhanced my professional abilities but has also instilled in me a sense of confidence and adaptability.

Furthermore, Ryerson’s supportive and accessible faculty members have played a crucial role in my personal development. They have provided mentorship, guidance, and encouragement, empowering me to overcome challenges and achieve my goals. Their expertise and dedication have inspired me to strive for excellence and continually improve myself.

I absolutely adore the location and community of TMU.

The food around the campus is amazing and there is so much to offer within less than 10-15 minutes walking range.

I think it’s important to make the effort in immersing with the community as the clubs and events are engaging and great opportunities to meet like-minded people!

The computer science program for me has been pretty decent, except for a few courses where the professors were unhelpful and have bad teaching styles. Some of the courses did not teach me valuable knowledge, and some of them had content taken from other professors from other schools. TMU is a commuter school so making friends can be challenging and there aren’t many events on campus.

Ryerson is a good place to learn and study. It has amazing professors, people, and the culture there is booming. It is in a very busy place and the location is quite far from most people who don’t live there since I commute daily. But without a doubt for the 3 years i’ve been there it has been fun, cool and has made me happy with what i’m studying. I am currently studying computer science and has hard as my program is I feel as if the school has helped me to get passed what I need to. I was recently also part of the cs group there and had much fun in displaying my coding skills and chatting it up with people. Most people there are friendly and same goes with the profs. I would say thought it is in the heart of downtown so it may not be everyones cup of tea but who knows give it a try. >)
