Biomedical Engineering
This unique, faculty-wide program integrates the study of complex living systems with engineering principles. Students learn how to apply these traditional principles to human and animal health.
Computer Engineering
This minor bolsters students’ knowledge in computer programming fundamentals, computer organization, integrated circuit technology and memory system design, biometric systems design, embedded system interfacing, digital signal processors, computer arithmetic and computational complexity.
Concentration in Cadastral Surveying
The concentration is for students interested in pursuing a career in professional land surveying. Technical electives include geodetic and engineering surveys, survey law, land use planning, hydrographic surveying and business. Students learn the skills to determine property boundaries, and to measure and analyse land-related information. As a concentration, this requires only 6 courses.
Digital Engineering
This minor allows you to develop some software engineering and coding skills while pursuing a non-software engineering major. Students learn about artificial intelligence, machine learning, the Internet of Things and more.
Energy and Environment
This program is the first of its kind in Canada. Students learn about the direct and indirect impacts energy-related activities have on the environment and how to understand, avoid, reduce and solve potential problems.
Entrepreneurship and Enterprise Development
This joint program with the Haskayne School of Business helps students build entrepreneurial skills. They learn the principles and practices of developing new ventures and managing small- to medium-sized companies.
Management and Society
This program teaches students about the role of management in our institutions and society. Engineering students learn how to apply managerial skills in a business environment.
Manufacturing
This program involves the study of product design and manufacturing facility design, taking into account environmental concerns. It also integrates scheduling, inventory control, development of automated processes (robotics) and implementation of information systems. Students gain a clear understanding of wider business issues such as the management of finance, people, organizations and information.
Mechatronics
This program involves the study of dynamic systems and controlled motions systems. Students learn the skills required to work in a modern laboratory doing hands-on design of mechatronics systems.
Petroleum Engineering
This program provides students with the skills required to work in the oil and gas industry. Students broaden their knowledge with technical electives in geology and reservoir engineering.
Structural Engineering
Students learn the skills required to plan and design a range of structures, such as buildings, bridges, dams and storage facilities.
Transportation Engineering
The program focuses on highway planning and engineering, accident analysis and prevention, and public transit system planning. Students learn the skills necessary to plan transportation systems.
