I'm currently in Traditional Computer Engineering at the University of Alberta and I'm hoping to switch into Co-op Software Engineering in the next year

I'm trying to get a realistic idea of how competitive the transfer is, so I was wondering if anyone here has successfully made a transition like this. I worked off from Y2Q2 and got a 2.7 gpa this year, but got placed into trad because of the PAF deduction :(

If you have, I'd really appreciate if you could share:

• What was your GPA when you transferred?
• Which year did you transfer?
• Were you coming from Traditional Computer Engineering?
• Any advice on improving my chances?

I'm especially interested in hearing from people who transferred in the last few years since admission competitiveness can change.

For those of you who have secured an internship/co-op for engineering (any discipline) this year, I would love to know your:

• Major and Year
• Company/Industry
• Position/Title
• Location
• Duration
• Salary ?
• Info about your application (GPA, previous experience, how many you applied to, interviews, offers, etc) :)

Hey everyone,

I'm thinking about starting a club!

The idea would be to create a casual space for students to connect through coffee chats, networking events, mentorship, career panels, and professional development workshops, especially women!

It would be open to students from all faculties and years, with a focus on helping people build connections and confidence in a less intimidating environment than traditional networking events.

Is this something you'd be interested in? What kinds of events would actually make you show up?

Also, if you know of any existing clubs that already do something very similar, I'd love to hear about them.
