Engineering Science students develop skills in systems design along with high levels of scientific knowledge and communications abilities. The program is intense, fast-paced and aimed at superior students. The School produces innovative and entrepreneurial graduates who are in demand in the Canadian and international high tech industry. Students use computers and computer graphic tools extensively for conceptualization, design and analysis. They have 24 hour access to micro and mainframe computers, engineering work stations and laboratories.
All students have computer accounts with access to Internet and electronic mail.
Salaries for these job placements can fund a significant part of the student's education and, more importantly, the industry experience may lead to a permanent position after graduation. Students are placed at Canadian high tech companies in a wide range of fields from computing to space applications. Some have also worked in placements in Germany, France, England and Japan. We also have a Biomedical Engineering Stream , which students take in parellel with one of the existing options. The curriculum includes complementary courses in management and finance, entrepreneurship, professional ethics, the social impact of technology on society and communication skills.
