Course based programs are majorly taught....u attend lectures and do a project, just like ur final year in the university but advanced....It is meant for those in the profession, seeking some kinda promotion or jst want to advance knowledge n upgrade their CV (1 year)

Research based courses are meant to expose graduate students to problem solving and decision making through research exposure in their area of interest, it often comes with funding either from a potential supervisor, the university or othe sources....it runs for 2years, u take few classes in ur first year to prepare u for d task ahead ; Research....you can also be employed as a RA or TA in the university.....

Just a small corectn, not all course based masters r 1 year, Most r 2 yrs in canada and US, bt sum r 1.
Research based masters is highly competitive in securing admisn cos they normally admit fewer students.
I advise most ppl to apply for course based except u hv a high CGP or sum research experience. dnt just apply for research Masters only. Its putting ur eggs in one basket and coming from a Nigeria undergrad school dnt hv u in d selectn. If u get course based masters, u can switch to research based after 6 months of studies if u r in gud academic standing.
There is another type of masters which to me is d best. Its called Masters (coop). Nt all schools offer it. After sum months of study (like 6months) u will be posted to companies as interns.u work in ur field, u take exams. U don't get to build a project(costly) and submit to school. Additionally, while u work, u get paid and also gather canadian work experience dt will help u secure a job on graduation.
Note- dnt apply for this masters now cos embassy might nt give u visa wit dt, apply for taught, after 6 months, switch frm taught masters to coop masters.
I got a coursemate working wit IBM wit this masters internship prog, imagine how his cv will look like afta d masters.
Also note- d coys select who they want according to their grades, qualificatns and certificatns.

It isn't true that when you apply for graduate a co-op program, that the Embassy would not issue you a visa. Remember most undergraduate programs in Engineering are coop programs and they get visas. Coop is part of the study program requirement and need no extra work permit. Your study permit has covered it and I know alot who got visas via coop programs. kelly.

We don't need to complicate issues, evrybody wll definitely get visa whether coop or non coop program, depending on the genuine intentions and documents submitted, mind you what work for me might not work for you.

It depends on the session you are applying ahead of. If you are planning for January 2013, to be honest and realistic its just too late. There are three months left for this year and the processing time is almost five months. Unless you are planning for another term or you can defer, go for it.

Olami1224: You guys are the best!.. Please i have tracked my application and am tired... please is there any number i can call this Canadian embassy people on so i can start disturbing them it 3months now
