| What it is | Electrical Engineering is a four-year program where you design, build, and troubleshoot systems that generate, transmit, and use electrical power and electronic devices. The BEng&Mgt option adds business and management courses so you can move toward leadership roles, whereas the straight BEng focuses entirely on engineering. Both include mandatory work terms, giving you paid experience in industry. This program suits you if you enjoy physics and math, like solving practical problems with electricity and electronics, and want hands-on learning alongside classroom theory. | 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. | Computer Science at Western teaches you how to write programs, build software systems, and solve problems using computers and code. You choose a focus — such as game development, managing information systems, or engineering robust software — based on your interests. The program includes paid work terms alongside your studies, letting you apply classroom learning in real jobs and build professional experience before you graduate. |

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.
