Hi,

I recently received an acceptance offer from a canadian university in MASc (Computer Engineering), but upon asking I got to know there are no TA and RA opportunities and MASc has no funding support. Apart from part time jobs and TA, RA and GA what other employment opportunities are there in campus ?

You should come to Canada with enough money to cover your tuition and living expenses. That's the best plan.

There can be quite a bit of competition for on campus jobs and they often pay minimum wage - so please do not count on this to cover your expenses. The same applies to off campus jobs.

Take a student loan and pay it off asap to cover tuition and living.

One can cover most expenses via working Uber Eats, DoorDash, and Skip the Dishes. That's what most international students do these days. You're right about on-campus jobs though - extremely competitive.
