What you studyGeneral or Integrated EngineeringArtificial IntelligenceComputer ScienceSoftware EngineeringArtificial IntelligenceComputer ScienceSoftware Engineering
What it isYou 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 how to protect computer systems and networks from cyberattacks by learning programming, software design, and artificial intelligence techniques. Unlike a general computer science degree, this program is built around real-world security problems and includes a co-op work term, so you apply what you learn in actual jobs while still studying. It suits people who want hands-on technical experience and are interested in the growing field of protecting digital information.Cybersecurity is the study of protecting computer systems, networks, and data from attacks and breaches. You learn defensive programming, threat analysis, and security design alongside core computer science and artificial intelligence concepts. The built-in co-op placements let you apply these skills in real security roles while you study, which suits people who want hands-on experience alongside theory.

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.
