Program description - August 2025
Design your future in this accredited Engineering degree program and discover the exciting and ever-changing world of electronic systems engineering - software, hardware, and embedded systems integration. It will start you down the path to pursuing a professional engineering career through licensing with Professional Engineers Ontario. There is a need in the market for highly qualified personnel able to work at the interface between the software and hardware that form the basis of Canada's innovation economy. This program is geared toward motivated individuals looking for rewarding careers in software engineering, electronics engineering, computer engineering, product development, machine learning, artificial intelligence, aerospace, internet networking, cyber security, internet-of-things, robotics and the next generation of smart devices and technology. This program is ideally suited for makers, tinkerers and analytical thinkers.
This honours-level Bachelor of Engineering program is a project-based learning environment where you will apply engineering and project management principles to solve real-world problems. You will develop the engineering skills to be job-ready to analyze, design and build the systems and products of tomorrow. Over the four years of the program, you will build your software and electronics engineering know-how and tackle many hands-on projects, leading to an open-ended capstone design project where you will investigate, design, implement and prototype a solution to an important societal problem.
Expand your leadership and teamwork skills as you work on group-based projects throughout the program. You will participate in a total of twelve months of co-op to gain valuable experience for your career. Co-op work terms are strategically scheduled to allow you to apply what you learn in the classroom, and the hours you work in industry gain you credit towards your Professional Engineers Ontario work experience requirements.
Students have opportunities for both co-op and post-graduate jobs at high profile companies both domestic and international. Small class sizes allow you to get to know your Professors and classmates. Follow your curiosity in our state of the art facilities and find your place along the bench where you'll discover specialized tools and software. Learn programming languages and design in the latest CAD environments. Then bring your ideas to life in labs featuring the latest high-tech equipment like oscilloscopes, signal generators, 3D printers and rapid prototyping platforms.
This program is accredited by the Canadian Engineering Accreditation Board (CEAB) of Engineers Canada. Graduating from this program satisfies the academic requirements needed to apply for a license as a professional engineer in Canada. Join graduates who work for high-profile local and multinational tech companies, in careers such as software development, hardware design, electric vehicles, medical devices, internet networking, smart manufacturing, and wearables and sensors. You can also choose to further your education at the graduate level (Masters, PhD) or other post-graduate opportunities.
