What it isCivil Engineering focuses on designing, building, and maintaining infrastructure like roads, bridges, water systems, and buildings. The BASc follows a traditional four-year classroom path, while the BEng (Co-op) integrates paid work terms with your studies, giving you real project experience before graduation. This program suits students who want to solve practical problems, enjoy applied mathematics and physics, and prefer learning through a mix of theory and hands-on work.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.
