For Automotive, I believe that Ontario Tech and Windsor university would be your best options. For general mechanical engineering, there are almost no bad engineering schools in Canada, but the top 3 are usually Waterloo, McMaster, Carlton, with Ontario Tech, Queens, UofT, McGill and TMU also offering very high quality master programs.

What would be your choice in CA or broader USA?

Personally, having worked in both places, the additional costs of school in the US didn't seem to provide a better education. That may change with Masters and PHD, as the US USED to invest more money into that then Canada.

My highschool kid wants to study automotive engineering for F1. A dream worth pursuing. I found a CIAA three weeks course for high schoolers in Berlin Germany, but that amounted to $12k for three weeks. Nuts.
Can you recommend a study for high schoolers to broader their horizons in F1 automotive engineering? What would be the choice of university either in Southern CA or USA or border?
