What it is	Electrical Engineering (Co-op) teaches you to design, build, and troubleshoot electrical systems and devices, from power generation to electronics and communications. The co-op option requires you to complete paid work terms at engineering companies alongside your studies, giving you real workplace experience before you graduate. The Engineering & Management stream adds business and management courses if you want to lead technical teams or projects later. This program suits students comfortable with mathematics and physics who want hands-on experience in industry while studying.	In your first year, you take core math, physics, chemistry, and engineering courses alongside introductory modules in civil, computer, electrical, mechanical, software, and space engineering. This gives you time to explore which engineering discipline suits you before specializing in upper years. The program includes paid work terms, alternating with school, so you gain industry experience while studying.	You study the theory and practice of building software, designing systems, and solving problems with computers. Carleton's program lets you focus on specializations like artificial intelligence, games, or software engineering, and includes a co-op stream where you alternate between classroom and paid work terms. This suits students who want hands-on industry experience alongside their degree and are interested in both the technical and applied sides of computing.	Engineering at Western teaches you to design and build solutions to practical problems using mathematics, science, and materials. You choose a specialization like software, mechanical, civil, or chemical engineering, or study general engineering first before deciding. The program includes co-op work terms, so you alternate between classes and paid jobs with employers, giving you real experience alongside your degree.
