What it isThis program teaches you how to design, build, and test software and computer systems. You study programming languages, algorithms, data structures, and how computers work at a fundamental level. It suits people who enjoy problem-solving and logical thinking, whether you want to work in industry, research, or develop your own applications.You study how to apply engineering and chemistry to solve biological and medical problems, like designing artificial organs, improving drug delivery, or creating medical devices. Unlike a general engineering program, this one focuses specifically on the life sciences side of engineering from the start. The co-op option lets you work terms at hospitals, biotech companies, or medical device manufacturers alongside your courses. This suits you if you're interested in both the technical side of engineering and direct work in healthcare or biotechnology.Engineering Science is a broad engineering program where you study math, physics, and engineering fundamentals before specializing in areas like aerospace, electrical, biotechnology, or general engineering. Unlike traditional engineering programs that lock you into one specialty from year one, this lets you explore multiple fields before choosing your focus. It suits students who are strong in math and science but unsure which engineering discipline fits them best, and who want optional paid work experience integrated into their degree.
