| What it is | You study how cars and vehicles are designed, built, and manufactured, combining mechanical engineering with hands-on problem-solving. The co-op version requires you to complete paid work terms at engineering companies alongside your classroom learning, giving you real industry experience before you graduate. This program suits students who want practical engineering skills and are willing to extend their studies to fit in work semesters. | You study how to design systems and structures that protect the environment and manage natural resources — combining biology, chemistry, civil engineering, and earth science. Unlike a general engineering program, this one focuses specifically on water treatment, waste management, air quality, and land remediation. It suits students who want to solve real environmental problems with engineering tools and are willing to do mandatory work terms alongside their studies. | This double degree program combines chemical engineering and computer science over five years. You study how to design chemical processes and systems alongside programming, software development, and computing theory — giving you expertise in both fields rather than choosing one. The co-op requirement means you alternate between classroom and paid work terms at engineering firms. It suits students who want a broader technical foundation and don't mind the longer timeline and work-study schedule. |

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.
