| What it is | You study engineering design by combining computer science, hands-on design work, and problem-solving across multiple engineering fields rather than specializing in one discipline like civil or mechanical engineering alone. This program emphasizes learning how different engineering areas connect and learning to design solutions that draw on several specialties at once. It suits students who want to engineer real products or systems but haven't decided on a single engineering focus, or who like working across different technical areas. | This five-year program combines biotechnology and chemical engineering, so you study both how to manipulate living systems at the molecular level and how to design and scale up chemical processes. Unlike a straight biochemistry degree, you learn practical engineering skills for industrial production and apply them through mandatory co-op work terms. It suits students who want to bridge pure science and hands-on problem-solving in fields like pharmaceuticals, food processing, or biofuels. | You study computer science and design together in a hands-on, project-based way rather than as separate subjects. The program emphasizes learning through real problems and experimentation, so you'll build working projects alongside traditional coursework. This suits people who want to understand how technology and design connect and prefer learning by doing. |
