The McGill semester is very short and you should work hard from day 1 – don’t fall behind on assignments

You are all elite students – the environment is very competitive

Engineering programs are considered to be difficult by McGill students - but are also recognized as the most fun and satisfying!

Take part in student design projects or extra-curricular clubs such as the Engineers without Borders

Don’t hesitate to seek help - peer tutorials, departmental and MESC advisors, professors
