Sort By: [Date] [Major] [Rating] Electrical Engineering  Major Salary, Salary Trend, Satisfaction, Unemployment Quite Bright Concordia University is quickly positioning itself among the best engineering school in Canada. There is healthy competition between the students at Con U. and McGill, which creates a vibrant and interesting engineering community. The teachers are extremely dedicated, and really do care that the students have a deep understanding of the material. There are comments which one can find online, which suggest that Con U. is easier to get into than McGill. This may be true in some cases, but it is definitely not a reflection of the quality of the education received at Con U. Education Quality: A+, Campus Aesthetics: D Have a Question?

Everyone is friendly and helpful including the professors. Many professors stay after their lectures to answer students questions and they encourage discussion in the classroom. There are two campuses- one in downtown(Hall Building) and the other(Loyola) a 15 minute bus ride. Concordia has a free shuttle bus service between the two campuses and there is frequent bus service-approx. every 10-15 min. Most of the science classes are held at the loyola campus which is a beautiful campus in contrast to the downtown one. They are very modern and I believe are still expanding. I have made many great friends. The courses are challenging and you have to work hard- Profs don't just hand out grades. You have to learn to manage your time and not let exams get to you. Other than that I would recommend Concordia because it is in a great city, and you can get a quality education. It ranks just as well as other top schools.Some of its programs are unique to them such as Exercise science and Journalism. Great place to study and experience!

I transferred here from McGill and I made the right choice. The professors are helpful and the education value is worth it. It's true there are protests and that can discourage you from coming here but there are few and you just have to walk by them. Students are friendly and the campus resources are good. They built a new science complex and renovated the buildings so it looks great now. Everything is up to date and technologically advanced. Different from McGill which is quite old. I like the class layouts. Education Quality: A+, Campus Aesthetics: D+ Have a Question? Your Response/Question:     To be informed when someone replies to your comment.

It has the resources and some very good professors. The bad point about it is that there is too much student activism and protests(especially by the Muslim and eco groups) on campus and the administration doesn't seem to know how to handle these problems. As a student I was there to learn not hear yelling and such activism going on. Many times it went overboard. This is what is giving CU a bad name- all those activism and protests. Also many times there are protesters who are not even students of CU. Also, they seem to lack some programs (Lab sciences, Physics, Physiology, health ones) which is sad because there are only 2 english universities in montreal- CU and McGill. If you can't get in McGill then you're stuck(unless you know French ) because CU doesn't have the program. Social Life: B, Useful Schoolwork: F Have a Question?
