What it isInternet of Things is a program where you learn to design and program connected devices and systems that collect and share data — like sensors, smart home equipment, or industrial monitoring tools. You study both the hardware engineering and software needed to make these systems work together. The co-op requirement means you alternate between classroom study and paid work terms at companies, giving you real experience before you graduate; the Management stream adds business and leadership courses if you want a path toward supervising teams or projects.Computer engineering combines the design of computer hardware with the software that runs on it. You'll study circuits, processors, programming, and systems that integrate both. The co-op stream lets you alternate between classroom and paid work terms at tech companies, giving you real industry experience alongside your degree, which sets it apart from the straight four-year option.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.
