What you study	General or Integrated Engineering	General or Integrated Engineering Mechanical Engineering	General or Integrated Engineering Interdisciplinary Studies Mechanical Engineering Medical Technology
What it is	You study the core principles and applications of engineering across multiple disciplines — mechanics, materials, electrical systems, and design — rather than specializing in one branch from the start. This program includes mandatory work terms integrated throughout your degree, giving you hands-on experience in engineering roles while you study. It suits students who want broad engineering foundations and real workplace experience before deciding on a specialization.	You study the design, building, and testing of cars and other vehicles, combining mechanical engineering with hands-on automotive know-how. Unlike a general mechanical engineering program, this focuses specifically on vehicle systems like engines, transmissions, and chassis. The co-op requirement means you work semesters in automotive companies alongside your classroom learning. It suits people who want engineering depth but prefer learning through real projects and industry experience rather than pure theory.	You study the engineering principles behind medical devices and equipment, combining mechanical engineering with biology and healthcare applications. Unlike pure mechanical engineering, this program integrates biomedical sciences so you design systems that work inside or on the human body. It suits students interested in engineering who also want to apply their skills directly to medicine and health technology, with mandatory paid work terms built into the degree.
