Being a member of the U15, the group of research-intensive universities in Canada, WU is quite famous for its co-operative education programs that allows students combine their learning with relevant work experiences. A lot of students like this option as it provides them with great job opportunities that help them secure desirable jobs/professions upon graduation.
The university keeps scoring and holding honorable position among many schools on the global level. The competitive culture within the school, in addition to great and well-designed programs, like the computer engineering, make Waterloo a great place to study. Innovation, entrepreneurship, and the great quality of learning make this university one of the top schools in the country. Finally, being in the heart of Waterloo is a great advantage as this city is not a crazy metropolitan, yet you're only one hour away of that craziness if you like to enjoy it every now and then!
There's a room for improvement in areas like the design of some classrooms that have no windows (Math Bldg), the Athletic Complex, and the stress issue that many students keep reporting.
