I want to become an HVAC Design Engineer and I have received admission offers from 4 Canadian Universities: Concordia (Montreal), Carleton (Ottawa), University of Windsor ( Windsor, Ontario) and University of Western Ontario (London, Ontario). These are only the universities that can give HVAC education in Canada. But I do not know which one gives the best professional education. May be somebody heared about these universities or some of them. Can you give me a suggestion in which university I can become the strongest specialist?

    Check out

    Ferris State University in Big Rapids Michigan. I don't know if attending in the States is an option for you but they have an HVAC department that is widely acclaimed to be one of the top in the world. They just finished a new lab this past year with all state of the art equipment and from the pics I've seen it's impressive. My son attended there for their 2 year program. They also have full 4 year plus graduate programs if you wish to delve into the full blown engineering end of things.

    As I remember, there was a good mechanical dept. at Humber College. I believe it is in Ottawa.

    Actually, Humber College is in Toronto. I keep meaning to ask my cousin who is an engineering prof at Windsor which schools are the best candidates. HVAC specialization aside, you probably can't beat UWO (University of Western Ontario) as a university. Western has an excellent campus and is very well funded through its alumni. None of the other universities are nearly as nice. All of its campuses and facilities are top notch. U of Ottawa is pretty nice. Concordia is stuck in the language funding issue. If you go to school in Montreal, Universit
