What it isEnergy Engineering focuses on designing, building, and managing systems that generate, store, and distribute power — from fossil fuels and nuclear reactors to solar and wind. The co-op option means you alternate between classroom semesters and paid work terms at energy companies, giving you real industry experience alongside your degree. The Management option adds business and leadership courses if you want to move toward supervisory or corporate roles. This program suits people who want hands-on engineering work combined with workplace learning and eventual responsibility for large-scale energy projects.This program teaches you applied engineering and IT skills together, focusing on how to design, build, and manage digital systems and software in real-world settings. Unlike a pure computer science degree, it balances hands-on technical work with engineering principles. It suits students who want practical technical training and are comfortable mixing math-heavy coursework with project-based learning.You study the engineering behind systems that transmit voice, data, and video across networks and through the air. This combines hands-on design and math with practical knowledge of how communication technologies actually work in the real world. The program includes a mandatory co-op work term, so you gain industry experience alongside your classes. It suits people who want to build things but are drawn to how information moves rather than, say, power systems or structures.
