I s an exciing ime o be an engineering suden a Ryerson Universiy. Our modern world depends on he innovaions of engineers. Wheher discovering new sources of energy, designing more efficien and reliable engines, finding new ways o comba disease, or developing more susainable building mehods and maerials, engineers improve he qualiy of lives around he globe. The Faculy of Engineering and Archiecural Science champions ha spiri of innovaion. Our sudens of oday will serve as he caalyss for change omorrow. The world is waiing for your ideas how will you make a difference?
engineering your success Ryerson Universiy s engineering programs focus on solving problems and designing ingenious soluions for real-world issues. Ryerson is a leader in relevan, career-focused educaion our programs prepare you o work in indusry or as a researcher immediaely upon graduaion. We offer a full-ime, four-year program or a full-ime five-year program wih paid inernship ha leads o a bachelor of engineering. All of our programs are accredied by he Canadian Engineering Accrediaion Board. Graduaes from Ryerson engineering programs are academically qualified o become Professional Engineers (P.Eng) in Onario. We currenly offer he following exciing programs. aerospace engineering In aerospace engineering, he sky isn he limi, i s jus he beginning. Aerospace engineers sudy advanced echnologies o design and manufacure newer, more efficien vehicles ha move hrough air and space, or across land and waer. This includes everyhing from jes and space-exploraion vehicles o high-speed cars and hovercraf. Ryerson is one of only wo Canadian universiies ha grans an undergraduae degree in aerospace engineering. biomedical engineering Biomedical engineers hold he promise of making a angible difference in he healh of humaniy. By applying engineering principles o medical problems, biomedical engineers develop innovaive medicaions, maerials, devices and processes for he prevenion, diagnosis and reamen of disease and rauma. The program akes advanage of Ryerson s close proximiy o Torono s medical disric and access o seven world-class hospials. This program is English Canada s firs and only accredied sand-alone undergraduae program in biomedical engineering. chemical engineering co-op Chemical engineers have heir hands in all ypes of fields. They are he driving force behind environmenally friendly fuels, improved polluion conrol, cleaner air and waer, beer asing food, faser silicon chips and new pharmaceuicals. Sudens in his five-year co-op program gain up o 20 monhs of paid work experience before graduaion. civil engineering Civil engineers creae he infrasrucure o suppor our civilizaion. Mos of us canno imagine a world wihou buildings, roads, bridges, a waer supply, wase reamen faciliies and power delivered o our homes. Civil engineers no only build hese faciliies bu manage, operae and mainain hem 24/7. elecrical engineering The role of an elecrical engineer is o undersand, manipulae and uilize elecrical phenomena. Elecrical engineers conver wind power, solar power and hydro-elecric power ino usable energy ha we see in our everyday lives. I s no surprise ha hese engineers can work in a variey of fields, including hardware and sofware design, digial imaging, microelecronics, and conrol sysems for airpors and power saions. indusrial engineering Can people and processes co-exis? Yes wih he help of indusrial engineers. Indusrial engineers sudy he human elemen in he design and operaion of complex sysems. They srive o make hings beer, faser, safer, more efficien and more economical. Indusrial engineering graduaes are in high demand and secure employmen in nearly every indusry and secor. mechanical engineering For mechanical engineers, he wheels are always urning. Machines inersec wih our lives in many ways from warm homes o cool cars o mechanical devices ha help persons wih physical disabiliies. Mechanical engineers develop devices o drive generaors, engines, ransmissions, urbines, elevaors, arificial limbs, bio-mechanical implans, and more. undeclared engineering (enry opion only) If you are no ye sure abou which engineering discipline is righ for you, consider our undeclared engineering enry opion.
