Electrical Eng., Class of '29

Winter 2025 · Lucas Cicchelli (unconfirmed)

B

It's a course provided by Ivey which means Case based learning. The cases are based on real life businesses mostly based in London which I found pretty interesting. Class participation is highly valued and could be 10% of your overall grade. So raise your hand to ask questions and answer them too. Most written exams are 3hr long which means a lot of writing. Use sample cases and videos posted online to study the format of what your prof wants in the exam. A lot of it just making up stuff on the spot out of the numbers given. My prof was a really lenient marker so I got lucky with that.

Integrated Eng., Class of '30

Grade not shared

It's a very demanding course and course load. If you want to do well in the class be prepared to do all the cases prior to the lectures.
