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.	You study both physics and electrical engineering over five years, earning two degrees and getting deep knowledge of how electricity, circuits, and electromagnetic systems work alongside the math and theory behind them. Unlike a single engineering degree, this double program gives you training in both the fundamental science and the applied engineering side. The co-op requirement means you alternate between classroom and paid work terms at companies, which suits students who want real-world experience before graduation and are ready for a longer program.	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.
