The co-operative (co-op) & internship program offers engineering students 8, 12 & 16 months of paid, full-time on-the-job experience, to develop skills, build professional connections and gain confidence in their chosen discipline.
The Optional Specialization in Management Sciences (OSMS) focuses on engineering and operations management, operations research, finance and organizational behaviour and prepares students for engineering leadership.
The Accelerated Masters of Applied Science Pathway helps research-minded students, who have a minimum CGPA of A-, earn a Master of Applied Sciences up to one year earlier.
A Professional Engineer (P.Eng) License (external link) is a professional designation for engineering graduates through Professional Engineers Ontario (PEO). Graduates can choose to pursue this license, subject to PEO requirements, because our program is accredited.
The first year transition program is designed to help students who may be struggling with the pace of university learning, have missed credits, or need to improve their academic standing. This program ensures that students have the tools and guidance they need to succeed and remain on track in their studies.
In the first and second years, students learn engineering fundamentals, like calculus, physics, and electric circuit analysis, digital circuits, and basic electronic circuits.
In the third and fourth years, you will gain specialized knowledge in designing and building computers, developing firmware, and building networks with stability and security at the forefront of thought. Through coursework and hands-on experience in our popular co-operative internship program, you'll gain the skills needed to build future computing devices, digital technology systems, and advanced IT platforms. Full course descriptions are available on the undergraduate calendar.
What does a computer engineering graduate do?
Career possibilities
Unlike computer science graduates, computer engineering students focus on designing hardware and manufacturing computers. Our computer engineering graduates become leaders in this crucial field because they’ve gained hands-on practical experience building computers and they’ve acquired immersive knowledge rooted in interdisciplinary theory on how to design interfaces.
Our graduates carve out traditional and emerging roles specializing in cybersecurity, data science, game programming, machine learning and much more.
Possible employers:
TMU computer engineering graduates work for a variety of leading companies, in various roles including:
- AMD
- Apple
- Electronic Arts
- IBM
- Intel
- Siemens Canada
- Telus
- + More
$10M for entrance scholarships
We offer more than $10M in academic-based entrance scholarships.
$25k for current students
We also offer more than $25k in computer-specific awards. Look for one of our eight awards on the university’s scholarships and awards platform. (external link)
