Electrical Engineering

Program Overview

Offered by: Electrical & Computer Engr (Faculty of Engineering) Degree: Bachelor of Engineering Program credit weight: 134 credits This program gives students a broad understanding of the key principles that are responsible for the extraordinary advances in the technology of computers, micro-electronics, automation and robotics, telecommunications, and power systems. These areas are critical to the development of our industries and, more generally, to our economy. A graduate of this program is exposed to all basic elements of electrical engineering and can function in any of our client industries. This breadth is what distinguishes an engineer from, for example, a computer scientist or physicist. In addition to technical complementary courses, students in the Electrical Engineering program take general complementary courses in social sciences, administrative studies, and humanities. These courses allow students to develop specific interests in areas such as psychology, economics, management, or political science.
