[about me] name: lydia instagram: @lazi.li age: 23 Not enough footage to cover my entire rant so here's a post about my goals: pCBRcnTcA0y7/
Hey Youjing! Thanks for the sharing. I’m also considering applying for the ischol. May I ask if it is possible for a person to do the double concentration as well as coop at the same time, but would not extend the length of graduation? I’m also worried that since my undergraduate background is economics and I’m interested in both ISD and UXD. Would it be too hard for people like me to accomplish the degree😢😊
Hi Rhy! Glad this info can be helpful to you. I know a lot of friends who started the program with no experience in programming at all but became top data scientists through the 2-year program
PhD is more of like a passion. So, the salary for any Undergrad doing a job compared to a PhD student doing a job does not matter.
Waterloo Elec Eng Grad 2006... Time flies
Hey! Thank you for sharing your experience! It is super helpful!! What kind of electives can you take in iSchool?
Hey! Just saw this now. There are multiple concentrations but I mostly take design, programming, and data science related courses. See full list: ischool.utoronto.ca/courses/

Heyy thanks for the video ❤!!! I have one question that is it worth to do MEng in ECE at the waterloo?? Does it paysoff well after graduation?? Thank you 😊
You have the same name as me my name is youjing li
4:00 the windows make it difficult to get bored of the video. Very nice windows!

Hi!! It would be amazing if I could connect with you on Linkedin, I am also a UWaterloo CS Student in 1st year! :)
For sure! Here's a link to my profile: www.linkedin.com/in/lydialiuw/
Thanks for the info! I’m considering applying to UOfT for the master’s of information program as well. I’m finishing my bachelor’s degree in CS right now, and I thought it would be a good opportunity to continue my studies in an specific field that I’m interested in (library science and information management). Aside from the positive aspects, was there anything about the master’s program that you didn’t like? Also, since you did a double concentration, did that extend the length of completing the program by a lot? (I’m also thinking of doing two concentrations).
Sorry for the late reply Cheshire! I took a break from UA-cam...I hope you have heard back from the admissions office by now. Honestly I have no complaints about the master's program because you make your own experiences (you can even take courses from the CS department). And no I did not extend the length of the program plus summer courses are for free!
@@youjingli119 Hi! No worries! I’m actually waiting for the results of my application now (I submitted my application 3 weeks ago - my reference was really late 😅). It’s good to hear that you had such a great experience! I had no idea that summer courses were free, thanks for letting me know 😊
@@cheshire_alice Hey, did you end up getting in? I accepted the offer for the ARM concentration but looking to switch into UXD
@@youjingli119 Hey! I just got into the UofT Information Program. Are summer courses really free?! That's awesome. Can you take extra credits then in the summer, more than required to graduate?
@@nadnodnadia Congrats on your offer! Assuming you will be a fulltime grad student, you are paying for the full school year (3 terms) and you won't be charged extra for additional courses you take on during the school year (so yes, summer courses are "free")

Thoughts on math versus computer engineering if I’m aiming for software jobs? I got accepted to both at waterloo. Loved your vid too.
Congrats on your offers!! If you are confident to get into and stay in CS with co-op, math is more flexible; if not, computer engineering also guarantees success in finding software jobs!
@@youjingli119 Sorry, I don’t think I’d get into cs if I went down the math route. I just meant if I just took the regular math coop degree versus computer engineering. Thanks for your reply.
@@bobross5731 I might be biased but I would for sure go with computer engineering if the end goal is to work in software :)
Looking great!
Great video, and great insight
hey I am applying for waterloo this year.I looked and your the only person who made a video.I want to say thany you so much. This means a lot. I wanted to know your average because I feel like I am not doing well or deserving enough to get in.
Hi Vedant! The entrance average for my class was 93% in 2015. I was below that haha. Best of luck and hope you get accepted to your dream programs!!
I would love to study engineering at waterloo but I didn't get in because of the crazy high requirements hahahaha
I'm sure other programs offer similar opportunities haha. Persistence is key :D
Makeup on point!
Omg I love this! It looks so fun 🤩
Good job Lydia! Keep up the great work ☺️
Thanks girl ;)
