At U of T Electrical Engineering, my first year was:
CIV101 - Structures, Materials and Design MAT196 - Calculus A MAT188 - Linear Algebra APS111 - Engineering Strategies and Practices I APS105 - Computer Fundamentals
MIE100 - Dynamics MAT197 - Calculus B APS104 - Introduction to Materials and Chemistry APS112 - Engineering Strategies and Practices II ECE110 - Electrical Fundamentals
Next year I have:
ECE212 - Circuit Analysis ECE241 - Digital Systems ECE244 - Programming Fundamentals MAT290 - Advanced Engineering Math MAT298 - Linear Algebra and Differential Equations
ECE216 - Signals and Systems ECE221 - Electric and Magnetic Fields ECE231 - Introductory Electronics ECE243 - Computer Organization ECE297 - Communication and Design
I can't wait until third year when I get to pick all my courses. Will be nice to get some electives in also.

I was just looking at courses for my next year (third), and I found out I have the potential of failing five of the classes.  Sometimes its nice to do something I really like, but it gets bad when I suck at what I like to do.  GPHY210* - Geographical Perspectives on Global Change GPHY242* - Remote Sensing I: Image Interpretation and Measurement GPHY314* - Climate Change GPHY338* - Urban Political Geography GPHY339* - Medical Geography GPHY342* - Remote Sensing II: Digital Image Processing GPHY347* - Multivariate and Spatial Statistic GISC301* - Spatial Analysis GISC302* - Environmental Modeling

You guys will be SCREWED for ECE221 without CALC III... good luck my friend, that course is hard, somehow I managed to pull of a 75 (raped the exam). -Linear Algebra is a joke. -Circuit analysis you really have to do a lot of problems and go for extra help if you get stuck ( I spent a good 5-6 hours on ONE homework question and then my friend explained it to me in like 30 seconds the next day) -Programming Fundamentals is new but I'm guessing you'll be doing linked lists, binary search trees, hash tables, and such.. if Abdelrahman is teaching you, you'll be fine, he's awesome and makes it so easy -MAT290 is also new, no idea what it is.. I heard it's a lot of complex number stuff, should be okay -ECE241 is really fun and not that hard, especially if Rose is teaching -Signals, you either get it or you don't... so make sure you get it.. actually wait no, I don't think anyone STILL understands why we actually had that course or what anything meant but I think it sets up the math for next year, so just don't question anything you learn and just learn to do the problems -E&M, I just don't know what to say, there's really nothing you can do... just work and maybe you'll get it but most likely not, you'll need to spend like a good 30 hours a week on this to do well (for me anyways) -ECE231 was really fun for me and I raped the exam, it's a continuation of circuit analysis so it's not too bad -ECE243 make sure you go to lectures because they are very important, but it was a very interesting course and go to Moshovos' lectures if you can, he's amazing -ECE297 you'll probably be doing the server design again, make sure you know how to program properly because it's tough and a lot of work but rewarding if you get it working in the end

My Schedule for 3rd Year Electrical & Computer (yes I'm both right now - UofT FTW lol):
-Digital Electronics -Introduction to Electronic Devices -Operating Systems -Algortihms & Data Structures -Full Year Entrepreneurship course
-Probabilty and Random Processes -Semiconductor & Device Physics -Computer Hardware -Digital Signal Processing
4th Year (yes we choose our fourth year courses at the end of 2nd year lol):
-Analog Electronics -Integrated Circuit Engineering -Advanced Electronic Devices -Design Project -Unchosen Elective
-VLSI Systems and Design -Engineering Economics and Analysis -Digital Systems Design -Design Project -Unchosen Elective #2
If anyone has taken these courses before please let me know how they went / are, and any tips!

Awesome bijanv, thanks very much for all the advice. I'm not too sure what happened with Calc III. I did hear that MAT290 was mostly complex variables and stuff, but perhaps they threw in some of the material from Calc III since they got rid of the course. So, pretty much Electricity and Magnetism is the hardest course of the year? As for the programming course and the design course, it used to be a full year design and programming course I believe, but they broke it up. I got an A- in APS105, so hopefully I do alright.
While I realize it's still a little early, I have looked at the calendar and have an idea on what to take my last two years.
Third Year
- Fields and Waves - Engineering Biology - Probability and Random Processes - Networking I - CS/HSS Elective
- Systems and Control - Physiological Control Systems - CS/HSS Elective - Free Elective (something as easy as I can get) - Engineering Economics
Fourth Year
- Design Project - Bioelectricity - Computer Architecture - Radio Systems - CS/HSS Elective
- Design Project - Biomedical Imaging - Introduction to Optics - Quantum Mechanics - CS/HSS Elective
Heard about any of these courses? I heard quantum is killer, so I might switch that later. Are you doing the PEY?

yeah I'm doing PEY next year, right now I'm in San Francisco working with a startup RFID company.
Yeah right now none of those courses will mean anything to you so don't worry about it, you'll probably have to move everything around to get accredited anyways (we have a special web app that we use to choose our courses and lay them out to make sure we get accredited). But yes Quantum is really really hard, I think it's pretty much the same as the Quantum in Eng Sci and all of my eng sci friends went through hell and back for that course.

The courses I am looking at should fit the accreditation rules. I followed the guidelines in the course calendar. But yeah, I do realize it's early, but I like to plan ahead.

But still... pretty bad from what I hear. I know almost everyone heates BME105.

First yeart @ UWO: Business 1220 - Introduction to Business Calculus 1000A - Calculus I Math 1228B - Methods of Finite Mathematics Earth Sciences 1089G - Earth, Art and Culture Visual Arts Studio 1020 - Foundations of Visual Arts Visual Arts History 1040 - History of Western Art Anthropology 1026F - Introduction to Biological Anthropology and Archeology The timetable which I painstakingly laid out for these courses is absolutely perfect, EXCEPT (and this breaks my heart) that the Earth Sci course conflicts with a once a month tutorial for Art 1020. AAAH I was kinda planning just to not go for tutorial (after all, Earth Sci only happens for one semester so I won't miss ALL tutorials), but the registration thing won't approve my schedule.

Do you know what sort of stuff you learn in Systems Biology?

Painful. That has way too much bio vibe for my liking.

Chem and Physics major FTW PSSSSSSSH Physics; Bio is the pwn. Actually I've only taken very basic physics and I don't like Chem because this god-awful teacher ruined it for me.... So there. But I love Bio to death thanks to a teacher who looked like Papa Smurf UWO 2012
