| What it is | Génie mécanique is a four-year engineering degree where you study the design, analysis, and creation of machines, engines, and mechanical systems. This program includes mandatory work terms where you alternate between classroom study and paid engineering jobs, giving you real workplace experience alongside your education. It suits students who enjoy physics and mathematics, like solving practical problems, and want hands-on experience before graduating. | You study the engineering principles behind medical devices and equipment, combining mechanical engineering with biology and healthcare applications. Unlike pure mechanical engineering, this program integrates biomedical sciences so you design systems that work inside or on the human body. It suits students interested in engineering who also want to apply their skills directly to medicine and health technology, with mandatory paid work terms built into the degree. | This program combines mechanical engineering with biomedical applications, so you study how to design and build machines and devices used in medicine and healthcare — from artificial joints to diagnostic equipment. Unlike a straight mechanical engineering degree, you focus on the intersection of mechanics and biology. It suits students who want engineering problem-solving skills but are drawn to healthcare and want to see their work help people directly. |

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.
