Choose your path
It's time to decide what engineering major to pursue. We offer a selection of majors and a host of minors and specializations.

Review
Review our programs to decide which major you are most interested in. If you are considering a minor or specialization, check to ensure it is offered in combination with your preferred major.
Wait
Watch for a link called Engineering Program Selection to be added to the My U of C portal in the For Students section. An email from the Engineering Student Centre will include details when the link is active. This is where you will apply for your major, minor or specialization.
Select
Using the Engineering Program Selection link, rank our seven programs from most-preferred to least-preferred. Second-year minors will also be ranked at this time. Program selection will be based on your grades, your preferences and on the expressed interest of other students.
Placement is made
Program placement is processed late in the spring term and placements are usually available in mid-June. For more information, contact the Engineering Student Centre.
