What it isYou study how to design, build, and program systems where everyday devices — phones, sensors, machines, appliances — connect and communicate with each other over networks. The BEng&Mgt option adds business and management courses alongside the engineering core, preparing you to lead projects or teams. This program suits people interested in both hardware and software who want hands-on experience through mandatory co-op work terms.You learn to design and code video games, combining programming skills with game design and storytelling. This program emphasizes building complete games from concept to finished product, rather than studying general computer science. It suits people who want to work in the game industry and have both technical problem-solving skills and creative ideas.You study how to create video games from start to finish, learning programming, visual design, animation, sound, and storytelling. Unlike a pure computer science degree, this program balances technical skills with creative and business thinking, so you learn game engines, art, and how to actually launch a game. It suits people who want hands-on work making games rather than working only on backend code or studying game theory in isolation.
