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.	You study the design and creation of jewellery and textiles using both traditional craft techniques and modern materials. Unlike a purely fine art program, this combines artistic vision with practical knowledge of how materials behave and how to construct wearable or functional pieces. It suits people who want to make things with their hands, enjoy experimenting with colour and form, and see themselves as artist-craftspeople rather than purely visual artists.	This program combines electrical engineering with computer science, so you study both how to design electrical systems and how to write software that controls them. Unlike a single engineering degree, you earn two degrees in five years by taking courses in both fields simultaneously. It suits students who want flexibility across hardware and software rather than committing to just one discipline, and who are willing to spread their study over an extra year to do both.
