Simon Fraser SIAT fully funded Research Masters vs UofT unfunded MS


Recommended Posts

I am fixed between deciding between the two 

1. Research Masters in the School of Interactive Arts and Technology with a full funding guarantee 

2. Unfunded Masters of Information in the UX Concentration

I am considering factors like 

- How big are university rankings as a factor when it comes to employability 

- Lesser financial liability will allow me to have a lesser headache in the masters learning experience, I could probably even spend money to enjoy the BC life 

- Toronto and VC look similar when it comes to living expenses.

Any suggestions and advice regarding this would be greatly appreciated 

 

Thanks in advance

When graduate school doesn't fund you, it's indrect way of telling you "oh come if you want to work and make data like a slave". Really, don't go to an unfunded school especially if it is UofT. They are both Canadian schools and won't affect you much for your phd application.
