If you want to learn computer programming but don’t have any prior experience, you’ll enjoy a tour of Java, one of the most widely used computer languages in the world. It’s a breeze to learn in a friendly and supportive environment. Start with the basics of programming and go on to write your own programs and integrate input and output, calculations, decision making, and loops. Build your knowledge and confidence with easy-to-understand examples and plenty of skill-building exercises. So whether you just want to try it out to see if you like it or plan on doing more with Java, this is a great place to start!

We’ll use the latest release of Java, from Oracle, the company that maintains and supports the language. We’ll also use BlueJ, a graphical development environment designed especially for students. Both are free open-source products, and I’ll give you the proper instructions to download them. By the time we’re done, you’ll be comfortable with Java programming and ready for more!

Waterloo's co-op programs for CS (Computer Science) students is the best in Canada and one of the best in the world. The students are very smart and motivated. Work is part of the learning experience, with rotating semesters in class vs. on the job. I'm in my third year but can already see people in my year and the year ahead of me getting job offers from Microsoft, Google, Meta, etc. -- the big names -- in Canada and in the U.S. I can't speak for other co-ops, but you can't find better than the CS opportunities here IMO.

I'm a recent grad and the network and community at Waterloo just blew me away. This isn't your typical MBA, it's very entrepreneurial with a strong focus on technology and the startup world. I truly loved my experience. My only caution is to people who pursue the MBA to "figure out what to do" after graduation. You need to understand how you want to make the MBET work for you, then network and choose electives and extracurriculars accordingly. Unlike a traditional MBA, where you might be streamlined into finance or management positions at big firms after graduation, the MBET will challenge you to create new things and work with people from different academic backgrounds--from the arts to tech to research types and many, many more. A+.
