What it isYou study how to design and operate chemical processes that transform raw materials into useful products — everything from pharmaceuticals to plastics to fuels. Chemical engineering combines chemistry, physics, and math to solve real industrial problems at scale. The co-op stream lets you alternate between classroom terms and paid work terms at companies, giving you direct experience in the field while you study.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.

Same subject area and a similar published range, at a campus you have not got in the table yet.

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.
