| 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 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. | Biomedical mechanical engineering combines mechanical engineering with biology and medicine, teaching you to design and build medical devices, prosthetics, and equipment that work inside or on the human body. Unlike a standard mechanical engineering program, this one integrates life sciences throughout, so you learn how human anatomy and physiology affect your designs. It suits students who want engineering problem-solving skills but are drawn to healthcare applications and want direct experience through paid work terms. |

Ranges are what each university publishes, not guaranteed cutoffs, and limited-enrolment programs often admit above them. Confirm anything you are about to act on with the university; each column links to its source.
