Overview
This Co-operative Education stream of the Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering, offered by the Faculty of Engineering, covers the design of machines and mechanical systems. Coursework spans five major areas: solid mechanics, dynamics, fluid mechanics, thermodynamics, and design, integrating theoretical knowledge with practical, hands-on application and design work. Students complete a common first-year Engineering curriculum before choosing this specialization; admission is not available directly from high school. Under the Co-op option, students complete five paid, supervised work terms of four months each in addition to the usual eight academic terms of full-time study, extending total completion time to five years. Graduates are prepared for employment across industries ranging from transportation to medicine.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: This program does not accept direct entry from high school. Applicants first complete a common Foundational/Qualifying Year shared by all Engineering students, then choose a specialized program and stream, including this Co-operative Education option, at the end of that year. Transfer students with post-secondary coursework taken outside the Faculty of Engineering are considered for admission based on GPA and relevant transfer credit.
