What it is	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.	You study engineering and health sciences together, focusing on how biology and chemistry apply to medical devices, treatments, and health problems. Unlike a standard engineering program, you're embedded in health sciences from day one, and you'll do paid work terms in hospitals, biotech companies, or medical device firms. This suits people who want to solve real health challenges through technology but aren't sure yet whether they prefer the engineering or health science side.	You study civil engineering and biomedical engineering together in one program, combining skills in building and infrastructure design with the biology and chemistry needed to develop medical devices and treatments. Unlike separate engineering degrees, this integrated approach lets you apply engineering problem-solving to health-related challenges. It suits students interested in how engineering and biology intersect, who want flexibility to pursue either path or blend them.
