What it isBiomedical Engineering combines engineering design with biology and medicine to develop medical devices, implants, and diagnostic tools. Unlike general engineering, it focuses specifically on solving problems in healthcare and the human body. You'll alternate between classroom study and paid work terms with companies in the medical technology sector, giving you practical experience alongside your degree. This program suits students who want to apply engineering skills to help people but need real-world exposure to decide if the field is right for them.Computing at Queen's covers the theory and practice of building software, managing information systems, and developing artificial intelligence. You'll study programming, algorithms, data structures, and mathematics that underpin these fields. The program includes a co-op option, letting you alternate between classroom and paid work terms at tech companies, which sets it apart from a standard degree and gives you real industry experience alongside your studies. It suits people who like solving problems with code and want hands-on exposure to how software gets built in actual workplaces.
