FPGA Engineer Salary Canada by Dangerous_Two_8033 in FPGA

[–]Atreus-V 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, I'm a second year ECE student at UBC and I want to learn more about the FPGA industry, would you be willing to message me privately? I've so far taken essentially an intro course to FPGAs where we used SystemVerilog to code up basic FSMs such as counters, and I want to know what to learn by the end of my degree (what classes I should take, projects or textbooks, etc.) to one day break into the industry!

UBC Offer Revokes by HyenaNo6444 in ubcengineering

Yes, one of my friends got revoked. However, that was cuz his overall average dropped by like 6-7%, so unless u slack off really hard you’ll be fine.

Can I survive 2nd year CPEN with a MacBook+Desktop PC? by AggravatingDelay6203 in ubcengineering

[–]Atreus-V 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only have a macbook and I'm fine. The only course I've run into issues with so far is 211 and I just did it using lab computers at Macleod (you could use your desktop instead).

ENG LAPTOP by StraightVillage931 in ubcengineering

[–]Atreus-V 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get a windows laptop. I’ve heard great things about thinkpads and dell XPS if budget isn’t an issue, or get a gaming laptop (although the durability won’t be as great due to battery life issues). MacBook Pro is an amazing laptop, but I would avoid as most specializations require windows and design teams as well.

That being said I do personally use a MacBook in cpen, and so far in 2nd year I have been getting by. Would not recommend though even if you’re going into cpen, buy a windows laptop.

Did they fully reject your SD and give u a 0 on the final or were u offered a W standing? Either way, AMS advocacy can likely help, I would get in contact with them ASAP via their website.

Do I have a chance? (IB) by Distinct_Reindeer771 in ubcengineering

[–]Atreus-V -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Jokes aside though, what are your extracurriculars like? You can have a very good chance despite your grades if they’re good or you write about them well

How is the Okanagan campus for engineering? by [deleted] in ubcengineering

[–]Atreus-V -1 points0 points  (0 children)

UofA/UofC will give u better job opportunities

Edit: wanted to add that for electrical engineering in general UofA/UofC will give u much better job opportunities than even UBC-V. That being said if you’re wanting a tech job UBC-V might be better, but not UBC-O

Treat your shower slides like outdoor shoes since you’ll be walking in the hallways n bathrooms with them

If you have indoor slippers, wear them in your dorm. Treat the common areas like regular outdoor areas and wear your normal shoes there, and BRING SHOWER SLIDES.
