SFU Business Questions
Hello,
I'm currently in Grade 12 and have been accepted into SFU's bus one program. I will mostly be staying in SFU's Surrey campus, but I also want to know about the Burnaby campus. I'm planning on studying Marketing and International Business, as well as getting a joint major with SIAT. Can anyone provide any comments on areas such as co-op, lectures, international exchanges, class sizes, student life, events, etc?
Thank you! :)

Comments
Lots of questions! You might want to ask more specific questions to get feedback from Business or SIAT students.
Co-op: great for experience, adding to CV and getting a real job. Company experiences can vary. International exchanges really rewarding, but can be expensive.
Lectures: instructors can vary too. Class sizes vary.
Campus life: SFU on the mountain in the winter can be a little bleak, so make an effort to join a club or two and go to events you're interested in. Vancouverites can be a little hard to get to know, at first.
