Likes
- Tuition fee and concentration in Analytics ( STEM background)
- Staff, faculty, Infrastructure and Recreation and other facilities. My professors were great and understanding and I was taught by a mix of both experienced and new professors who had great papers they had published in the field of technology and Finance
Dislikes
- It was a great experience. The issue you are likely to face is that the city, Fredericton is relatively small and hence the amount of opportunities are less as compared to a bigger city.
Overview
It was a great experience. Especially the overall academics and support from the staff/faculty. The MBA offered here is one of the least expensive ones in the whole of Canada however the ROI entirely depends on the student on how they get the best value out of it.
Campus Life
10/10 for everything that includes extracurricular activities, infrastructure, library, recreation and student support especially for international students.
Overview
The university had an Institute of biomedical engineering. The institute specialized in prosthesis research, which was what I sought to get into. I also sought to work with the professors associated with the institute to supervise my research.
Fees
Fees structure is by term. For graduate students, this is reasonable and drops after three years. Other charges include the student union, health, and dental, technology fee, facilities fee.
Overview
It's the best one in the city and affordable. I didn't want to have to move out of my home town because I don't have the money for that. I also had several friends who attended and graduated and I went to them for their opinions before applying. They all talked of the teachers they enjoyed and told me the pros and cons, helping me decide.
Fees
The structure for fees was straightforward. They are very well defined in the paperwork you get while you're applying, and are told of the charges on D2L or twitter if you follow the school. Plus the student loan people themselves will send emails about any fees.
