Staff should care more about teaching, not just their salaries what happened to educators and their oath!!!
Great facilities, and beautiful campus. However it being situated on Mississauga road sucks as the traffic usually bottlenecks at the entrances. Parking lot also a frenzy in the morning. Most of the professors I have had are fairly good and non biased.
Former student. Mixture of old and new buildings. Accessible. Multicultural.
Nice campus environment. Very smart professors so it’s a great place to acquire knowledge. Social life is below average but you can make great friends here if you know where to look.
A lot of deers in campus, and very nice and quiet campus! Love it
Takes 5.5yrs on average to complete a 4yr program. 1/3 or greater never graduate so the university reports 6year graduation rates only and hides the 4yr rates though they only offer 4yr programs so that they can continue to accept masses and collect tuition while maintaining their claim of prestige. The university suppresses police misconduct complaints against their service who take the liberty of harrassing and physically assaulting students and locking them out of the facilities which they are said to have access to. The university is heavily invested in weapons companies like lockheed martin who manufactire and sell weapons of war including cluster bombs banned under international law. Executives like Paul Donaghue give themselves 100% raises and make over 250k/yr while spening $1m on a sign in a building corruption scandal and then refusing to answer questions or provide a soeding breakdown. Then they will publish their propaganda story of Patrick Gunning curing cancer 4x per year as he synthesizes molecules at random hoping one will somehow cure cancer while blowing the whole research budget. Enjoy the biggest scam of your life.
I had a wonderful experience completing my undergrad here! Smaller class sizes mean you really have the opportunity to contribute to discussions and get help or support from your peers. There are so many opportunities for research or volunteer work, which really prepares you for life after undergrad!
The campus is gorgeous. I don't attend school here but I just thought I would let people know. Also, the Davis building has rooms with no air conditioning so be aware of that in the summer months.
Campus is really well laid out, easy to navigate. Outrageous parking prices, I'd bus if possible. Has really awesome library with book shelfs that slide ala Harry Potter magic. Interesting architecture. Poor cafeteria and food selection compared to other universities. Brings my significant other a great deal of pain, but the campus itself and classrooms are nice. Certain classrooms need more outlets.
I did a year here as a visiting student. The teachers were really good people who cared about the education of their students.
Absolutely breathtaking campus. The buildings are excellently designed and the grounds are well kept, featuring peaceful nature trails and park areas. Deer frequent the campus. The teachers and staff are excellent and frequent bus service makes it easy to get to.
Very Stark contrast from University of Toronto's St. George campus, but not necessarily in a bad way. They did, however, spend entirely too much money on the rock Sculpture school signage that greets you at the turn-in. Definitely could have been better utilized.
Below - average university experience for a more outgoing person. "Get in, do your work, get out" atmosphere. You go for the education, which, let's be honest, is the point of university. That part is world - renowned. You stay, however, for the frills like clubs, school spirit, events, etc. which rarely occur and/or are poorly advertised.
It's a U of T degree so if you're a person looking to work around the world and have top - quality education, go here.
