Program details
Overview
The Co-operative education stream of the Bachelor of Science in Computer Engineering at the University of Alberta prepares students to design, build, and operate the computer systems and software that underpin modern technology, treating hardware and software components as closely coupled parts of a single design. Within this program, students may choose a Software Option, available only through Co-op, or a Nanoscale System Design Option. Students apply to the foundational first year of the Faculty of Engineering before choosing this program. As a Co-op program, students complete five paid, supervised work terms of four months each in addition to the usual eight academic terms of full-time study, extending the degree to five years. Graduates work in fields such as artificial intelligence, software engineering, cybersecurity, and hardware design.
