| What it is | Engineering Physics combines physics and engineering to solve real-world problems using deep understanding of how materials and forces behave. Unlike a straight engineering program, you study the fundamental science behind why things work, not just how to build them. This program includes paid work terms, so you gain practical experience alongside your coursework. It suits people drawn to both the math and physics of engineering who want to understand the principles before specializing. | This program combines electrical engineering with computer science, so you study both how to design electrical systems and how to write software that controls them. Unlike a single engineering degree, you earn two degrees in five years by taking courses in both fields simultaneously. It suits students who want flexibility across hardware and software rather than committing to just one discipline, and who are willing to spread their study over an extra year to do both. | You study both chemical engineering — how to design and optimize chemical processes and manufacturing at industrial scale — and computer science, learning to build software and computational systems. The five-year structure and mandatory co-op terms give you paid work experience alongside your degree, letting you apply both skillsets in real industrial settings. This suits students who want to bridge chemistry and coding rather than choose one, and who value hands-on experience while earning. |

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.
