U Toronto - M.Sc in CS - environment and general query

[quincylala]

Hi all,

 

I have been accepted into the Masters program in Computer Science at the University of Toronto. I would be really grateful if you could fill me in on a couple of questions I have. 

• Firstly, how hectic is the program at U of T, would there be any free time to pursue other activities while in the Master's program ? I am asking this cause I want to explore setting up a startup while doing the master's or shortly after.
• How is the startup culture in Toronto, is it encouraging, do a lot of students startup in Toronto?
• What kind of jobs do the students go into after graduation ?

I apologize if the questions sound a bit off, i am just really confused and am trying to make a decision.

 

Thanks in advance,

Quincy
