What you study	General or Integrated Engineering Mechanical Engineering	Business Studies Information Technology Management Management Studies
What it is	You study how to design, build, and improve machines and mechanical systems — engines, pumps, robots, and similar equipment — using physics and mathematics. This program includes a co-op component, meaning you alternate between classroom terms and paid work terms at engineering companies, giving you real-world experience alongside your degree. It suits students who enjoy solving practical problems, like how things work and why they fail, and who want hands-on learning combined with classroom theory.	This program teaches you business decision-making using data analysis and technology. You study management, information systems, and quantitative methods to solve real problems in organizations. It suits people who want to work in business but prefer working with numbers, systems, and analytics rather than general management or accounting alone.
