| What it is | Computing at Queen's covers the theory and practice of building software, managing information systems, and developing artificial intelligence. You'll study programming, algorithms, data structures, and mathematics that underpin these fields. The program includes a co-op option, letting you alternate between classroom and paid work terms at tech companies, which sets it apart from a standard degree and gives you real industry experience alongside your studies. It suits people who like solving problems with code and want hands-on exposure to how software gets built in actual workplaces. | You study mechanical engineering combined with biomedical technology and computer science over five years, learning to design medical devices and systems using mechanical and software skills. Unlike a single engineering degree, this double program integrates all three fields from the start rather than treating them separately. It suits people drawn to healthcare innovation who want hands-on experience solving real engineering problems through mandatory work terms. |

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.
