Trent university is a very nice school. They offer a lot of programmes and have very nice and approachable professors. I personally love the environment as Trent is a very beautiful school surrounded by nature. Would strongly recommend it.
View moreCurrently studying Computer Science at the institution, the programme immediately exposes you to high level of work-ability that would be required from you upon completing your studies, in essence, your search for an occupation in the job market. Nonetheless, the programme provides a wide range of specialization opportunities. After your first year, the courses you should have taken would help give an idea of where you would love to practice further should you decide to continue your courses. Personally, as a student specializing in Software Engineering, I really appreciate the wide range of other areas I can choose to go into, to strengthen my position in the job market. For instance, alongside being a Software Engineer, I can decide to dive deeper into the world of data science, considering the courses that I take are stepping stones to becoming more learned in the latter.
At the university, the professors/lecturers are very open to discussing any ideas that may occur to you immediately during (in-person) lectures and there is clear evidence of strong education in their fields.
Furthermore, even with the rosiness that may come from delving into my programme, the intensity of some courses is not as appreciated and greater flexibility regarding the manner in which some lectures handle their courses would make a huge difference as students complete more years of the programme.
Moreover, when you do the work, you would come to find that there are more and more career prospects such as easily obtaining certifications, discovering other minor interesting fields of study, etc. along the way, not just locally but also internationally.
View moreMy name is Brianna, and I have just recently completed my second of four years of school for my undergraduate degree in psychology at Trent University. A few highlights for me about how the school operates is first offering two different campus locations; Trent University Peterborough and Trent University Durham. I go to the Durham campus, which is much smaller and has a more intimate setting than the Peterborough location. There are pros and cons to this campus as the quaintness of the setting offers more intimate dynamics in terms of relationships with other students, and establishing good connections with professors that could be useful during and after completion of your program. However, this may come at the cost of substantial nightlife activities or other student life as the community of Oshawa is smaller and much more residential than the Peterborough location in my opinion. There is one housing building on site that is mostly occupied by Trent’s international students, and from my own experience, Trent Durham is fairly effective and managing and accommodating international students’ needs, especially over the pandemic by offering extending housing into the summer months for those who couldn’t get back home. The program I am currently enrolled in is fairly interesting and compelling as far as psychology goes, and the professors in my experience thus far have been fairly accommodating and attentive especially navigating the COVID-19 pandemic. Trent as an overall organization does a good job at the inclusion of Indigenous communities and even requires a mandatory Indigenous course to be completed in order to successfully obtain an undergraduate degree which is a huge highlight of importance in my opinion. Trent also does a substantial job of maintaining and engaging individuals with their online presence via social media, even curating a separate page on Instagram for upcoming job opportunities for students. Areas of improvement moving forward for the Durham campus, in particular, would include offering more food choices on campus or partnering with local fast food shops (i.e Tim Horton’s, Subway. etc.) to offer more variety of food options to students on campus. Overall, Trent University has been a fairly pleasant experience for me as a student thus far, and I would recommend my particular campus location (Durham) to students who are potentially more introverted, or perhaps who prefer smaller-scale environments if they feel more comfortable.
View moreAs a double major at Trent University, I thoroughly appreciated the help and guidance my professors and teacher’s assistants supplied me with throughout the years. The patience and kindness they showed are something that I will always cherish. Having small class sizes provided me with an opportunity to get to know my professors one-on-one and allowed me to have a personal relationship with many of them that I will take with me following the completion of my degree. Furthermore, being such a small school, I was able to get involved with my college and other clubs and groups on campus which enabled me to have a second family away from home. I truly enjoyed my experience at Trent and I would recommend it to anyone that is looking for that sense of community in a university.
View moreMajoring in Forensic Science specifically at Trent University has opened my eyes and allowed me many great opportunities. The professors are very understanding and push students’ capabilities in order for them to grow and flourish in the field of Forensic Science.
View moreThe University has a great campus with big classes and has a good amount of international students. The professors are very helpful and good at teaching. The University could improve its housing facilities by increasing the number of houses as more and more students come each year. Overall it’s a great university and I would definitely recommend it to others.
