  • Alternative Offers
  • You will receive an offer of admission to only 1 program. Your highest listed choice is considered first when you indicate more than 1 Brock program on your application. If you are not eligible for your first choice, your subsequent choices will be considered in your indicated order of preference. In most cases: If you apply to only 1 Brock program but do not qualify, you will be considered for an alternative or related program. If you apply but are not admitted to a co-op program, you will automatically be considered for the regular, non co-op program.

What you studyChemical EngineeringCivil EngineeringElectronic & Electrical EngineeringFacilities ManagementArtificial IntelligenceComputer EngineeringGeneral or Integrated EngineeringArtificial IntelligenceChemical EngineeringCivil EngineeringElectronic & Electrical Engineering
What it isYou study a specialized branch of engineering — chemical, civil, electrical, mechanical, software, or another field — applying math and science to design and build real structures, systems, or software. The co-op option lets you alternate between classroom semesters and paid work terms at engineering companies, giving you industry experience before you graduate. This program suits students strong in math and physics who want hands-on learning and concrete career preparation.Computer Science at Brock is a four-year degree where you study programming, algorithms, software design, and computing theory. The co-op option means you alternate between semesters of study and paid work terms at tech companies, giving you real workplace experience alongside your coursework. It suits people who want technical depth and prefer learning through hands-on projects and industry internships.Artificial Intelligence Engineering teaches you how to design systems and machines that can learn and make decisions like humans do, combining computer hardware, software, and AI techniques. The co-op requirement means you alternate between classroom semesters and paid work terms at companies, so you build real engineering experience while studying. The Management option adds business and leadership courses alongside the engineering core. This program suits students who want hands-on engineering work with AI technology and value learning in a workplace setting.Engineering at Western teaches you to design and build solutions to practical problems using mathematics, science, and materials. You choose a specialization like software, mechanical, civil, or chemical engineering, or study general engineering first before deciding. The program includes co-op work terms, so you alternate between classes and paid jobs with employers, giving you real experience alongside your degree.
