西蒙弗雷澤大學(xué)

This program leads to a bachelor of applied science degree with a systems option.

Engineering science students develop skills in systems design with a high level of scientific knowledge. This demanding program is aimed at the superior student. The program produces well educated, innovative engineer/scientists with entrepreneurial skills and attitudes who are oriented to new technologies. Program entry is competitive.

Students undertake a basic core of pure, applied and engineering sciences followed by studies in a specialized option. The general BASc program may be completed in eight academic terms plus a minimum of three co-op terms.

ENSC courses emphasize learning, conceptualization, design and analysis. Built into the program are courses on social impacts of technology, finance, management, design methods and entrepreneurship intended to complement scientific studies. A special, integrated communications course completed throughout the program ensures that all graduates have the communication skills necessary to be effective engineers.

This systems option prepares students for careers in design and integration of computer-controlled machines, and for graduate study in robotics, control and mechatronic systems. Students integrate knowledge from electronic engineering, mechanical engineering, and computer engineering into the fundamental design process. This focused program includes study of mechanical structures and mechanisms, electro-mechanical sensors and actuators, control engineering, and real-time systems. Electives may be used to tailor curriculum to specific interests.
