Program details

Overview

Engineering (BEng) is Carleton University's general-entry Bachelor of Engineering program, offering hands-on training across a range of engineering activities including the design of aircraft, vehicles, machinery, software, telecommunications systems, medical devices and solutions to environmental challenges. The degree encompasses 15 distinct areas of study, including Aerospace, Civil, Computer Systems, Electrical, Mechanical, Software and Sustainable Energy Engineering, among others, allowing students to pursue a specific major within the broader program. An optional minor in Business is available alongside co-op employment opportunities with organizations such as Amazon and the Canadian Space Agency. Carleton's engineering programs carry accreditation supporting professional licensure. Graduates enter careers spanning aerospace, civil infrastructure, computing, electronics, environmental engineering, mechanical systems and software development, working in industry, government and research settings.

Requirements

Admission Requirements: Admission to the Bachelor of Engineering requires the Ontario Secondary School Diploma (OSSD) or equivalent, with a minimum of six Grade 12 U or M courses. Four of these six courses must be the required 4U prerequisites: Advanced Functions, Chemistry, and Physics, plus one of Calculus and Vectors (recommended), Biology, or Earth and Space Science. A 4U course in English or French is recommended but not required for admission. The overall admission average and the prerequisite-course average are set each year on a program-by-program basis, and meeting the stated minimum only establishes eligibility for consideration; because places are limited, the cut-off average for a given intake year is typically well above the minimum. Applicants seeking direct entry to the co-op option must meet the required overall and prerequisite-course cut-off averages, be registered full-time in the program, and be eligible to work in Canada.
