One of the most distinguished engineering programs in the world, Engineering Science (EngSci) is designed for students who are looking for an intense academic challenge.
In your first two years, youll be immersed in engineering, math, science, computing and humanities. In your last two years, youll choose from one of eight majors for accelerated, discipline-specific learning. Our students thrive in a close-knit community of exceptional individuals, creating an enriched and unique learning environment.
Through discipline-specific specializations, multidisciplinary minors and certificates, and unique professional opportunities, you can customize your U of T Engineering degree to meet your own developing interests at every stage of your academic journey. Academic flexibility combined with a wide range of optional curricular and co-curricular opportunities means that you graduate equipped with the engineering competencies, professional confidence and global perspective to address complex challenges.
As a part of your U of T Engineering experience, you will gain a minimum of 600 hours of practical experience. This ensures that you obtain significant experience with professional responsibility before graduation. Your 600 hours may be fulfilled at any point during your degree and can include many facets, from working in industry to conducting research. Successful completion of the Professional Experience Year Co-op Program automatically satisfies this requirement.
Robotics engineers create autonomous field robotics, healthcare robotics, and advanced manufacturing robotics for use in dynamic, unpredictable environments.
They work on technology as diverse as self-driving cars, rovers for space exploration, autonomous drones, and snake-like robots for finding earthquake survivors in rubble. They develop AI-powered nanobots for cancer therapy, social robots for long-term care, assistive devices, and biosensors that are revolutionizing healthcare. They design smart materials, large and tiny robot factories, and continuum robots for confined spaces in advanced manufacturing.
