Co-op and Internships
Western Engineering Career Services offers two types of co-op programs for undergraduate students: Summer Engineering Co-op (SECOP) - a 4 month May to August work term; and an Internship - a 12 to 16 month placement for students in their second last year of study.

Accelerated Masters Program
This program is offered to current third-year Western Engineering students. In order to be accepted into the Accelerated MESc program, applicants must have an average grade of 80% or above (from their 2nd and 3rd years). The Accelerated MESc allows students to receive a MESc within 1 year of receiving their BESc. (more)

Dual Degrees
In addition to our strong design-based core engineering programs, Western Engineering also offers two types of Dual Degrees: Concurrent degrees and Combined Degrees. These degrees prepare students to cross traditional borders in their future careers, allowing them to graduate with two degrees in less time than it would take to complete each one independently.
