| What it is | This program teaches you to design, build, and maintain automated systems that control machines and processes in factories, utilities, and other industries. Unlike a general engineering degree, it focuses specifically on the practical skills and hands-on work needed to implement automation rather than the deep theory behind it. It suits students who want to solve real problems with machinery and electronics and prefer learning by doing alongside classroom study. | Biomedical 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. |

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.
