| 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 the theory and practice of computing, from writing software and building systems to artificial intelligence and how businesses use technology. The co-op stream requires you to alternate between semesters of coursework and paid work terms at tech companies, giving you real workplace experience alongside your degree. This suits students who want hands-on industry exposure while learning, or who prefer the traditional full-time study path. | You study the engineering and science behind medical devices and body systems — combining electrical, mechanical, and software engineering with biology and biochemistry. Unlike a pure engineering program, this integrated stream embeds health sciences throughout, so you're designing with biological function in mind from day one. The co-op requirement means you'll alternate between classroom and paid work terms at hospitals, manufacturers, or research labs. This suits students who want to build real medical technology rather than study engineering or biology alone. |
