What it is	Mechatronics engineering combines mechanical, electrical, and AI systems into machines that think and move — think robots, automated manufacturing, or smart devices. This co-op program alternates between classroom terms and paid work terms at companies, so you graduate with real engineering experience alongside your degree. The management option adds business and leadership courses if you want to move toward supervising projects or running operations. This suits people who want hands-on problem-solving, like learning by doing, and are ready to commit to work-study scheduling.	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 computer science and design together in a hands-on, project-based way rather than as separate subjects. The program emphasizes learning through real problems and experimentation, so you'll build working projects alongside traditional coursework. This suits people who want to understand how technology and design connect and prefer learning by doing.	You study how to design and build computer systems, combining software and hardware engineering with applications like artificial intelligence. This program includes a mandatory co-op work term, giving you practical experience in industry while you study. It suits students who want hands-on problem-solving in computing and are willing to balance classroom learning with paid work semesters.
