Dual Degrees: Graduate with two degrees at the same time
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.(more)
Accelerated Masters Program
There are many advantages to entering the job market with more than one
degree. Western Engineering makes this process easier for students to
achieve by offering strong students the option of an
Accelerated
Masters Program where they can earn a BESc. (Bachelor of
Engineering Science) and an MESc. (Masters of Engineering Science)
degree over a five-year time frame. During the last year of study,
students receive a graduate student salary. We also offer a primarily
course-based MEng degree, which can be completed within one year of
undergraduate studies. (more)
Co-op and Internship
Students who have completed a
co-op or internship experience gain a competitive advantage when
seeking full-time employment. Western Engineering offers valuable, paid
engineering work experience through 12 to 16 month internships, summer
co-op, or both. Graduate students can also experience industry
work placements. (more)
Leadership
Opportunities
The Western experience is not just about studying. It’s also about
developing leadership skills, building a network of friends, having fun and making a difference in the community.
