| What it is | Génie électrique (Electrical Engineering) teaches you how to design, build, and troubleshoot systems that generate, transmit, and use electrical power and signals — from power grids to electronics. This is a four-year engineering program with mandatory co-op placements, meaning you alternate between studying on campus and working in industry, giving you real hands-on experience alongside theory. It suits students who enjoy physics and mathematics, want practical engineering skills, and value learning through workplace projects. | Engineering Physics combines physics and engineering to solve real-world problems using deep understanding of how materials and forces behave. Unlike a straight engineering program, you study the fundamental science behind why things work, not just how to build them. This program includes paid work terms, so you gain practical experience alongside your coursework. It suits people drawn to both the math and physics of engineering who want to understand the principles before specializing. |

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.
