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 chemistry, physics, astronomy, or geology at an advanced level, choosing your focus after first year. This program includes a co-op option that lets you work for employers in research, industry, or government between school terms. It suits students who are curious about how matter, energy, and natural systems work and want both hands-on lab experience and real-world work placements.

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.
