Student review [#50483] for Human Kinetics
at University of Ottawa

uOttawa is overall a good school. Being located in the capital city has a lot of benefits, including that it is easier to find jobs, co-ops, internships etc. The only downside is that if you don’t speak French you will find yourself quite limited in where you can apply and you will likely find it harder to find opportunities.

Being a big school, there are lots of clubs, organizations, teams, initiatives etc. that you can involve yourself in. Also, the professors are very involved in cutting-edge research and require a lot of assistance from students as volunteers or assistants. There are lots of opportunities here which can be very beneficial to you as a student in building your career.

The downside however, is that the University administration tends to be quite unresponsive, which can lead to a lot of stress.
