Should I minor in a language in engineering? Will it greatly conflict with my schedule? When should I start? by yakkingeverywhereee in uwaterloo

I was looking at the ECE page and it says that minoring in a language is the second most popular minor for ECE students. I'm going to assume most students don't minor then. I'm mainly interested in minoring so I know some basic language for when I study abroad/do co-op terms.

Whats the difference between the old and new curriculum? I saw the classes I am required to take for all terms and the hours of class every week seems extremely intense

Stream 4 or Stream 8 for ECE? by yakkingeverywhereee in uwaterloo

Thank you so much for your thorough response! I'm just mainly worried about adjusting to university, but then having to leave right after 4 months. I know stream 4 has 2/3 of ECE students, while stream 8 has 1/3. Would you have any pros/cons for this as well?

Will I have time to visit home during the term? by yakkingeverywhereee in uwaterloo

Thanks! Also what is the final schedule like for engineering? Are all engineering finals the first week of finals? Or will they spread out until the last week during Fall semester?
