What it isComputer Science is the study of how to design, build, and improve software and the systems that run it. You learn programming languages, algorithms, data structures, and problem-solving techniques that apply across industries. This program includes a mandatory co-op work term, so you spend time applying what you learn in real jobs alongside classroom study, which sets it apart from a straight academic stream.Mechanical Engineering teaches you to design, build, and improve machines and systems, from engines to robots. The Management option adds business and leadership courses alongside engineering, preparing you to lead projects and teams rather than focus purely on technical design. This program includes mandatory co-op work terms, so you alternate between classroom and paid on-the-job experience with employers. It suits people who enjoy solving physical problems with math and physics, and want hands-on learning combined with real workplace exposure.You study how cars and vehicles are designed, built, and manufactured, combining mechanical engineering with hands-on problem-solving. The co-op version requires you to complete paid work terms at engineering companies alongside your classroom learning, giving you real industry experience before you graduate. This program suits students who want practical engineering skills and are willing to extend their studies to fit in work semesters.
