Western Engineering provides a strong community environment. When you start your academic journey with us, you will join a cohort of approximately 750 first-year students. Professors will know your name and academic counsellors will be available to help you navigate and succeed through your university experience.

When you start in September, your first year academic counsellor will have your timetable ready for you. With our common first year, you and all of your first-year classmates will take the same courses. The Business for Engineers course in the first-year curriculum recognizes the importance of a business perspective for engineering practice and creates multiple opportunities for further educational experiences while you are at Western.

Throughout first year, you will have the opportunity to participate in activities to help with your transition into university life. You can join clubs and teams, get to know your first-year classmates, and explore our engineering programs in more detail.

Choosing an upper-year stream can be stressful and we want you to have options, which is why Western Engineering will guarantee your acceptance into the program of your choice (except Mechatronic Systems Engineering and Software Engineering) after first year if you:

Living-Learning communities are themed floors where residents who share the same academic faculty, program, or interest live together on the same floor. Engineering has a Living Learning community in Essex Hall, which provides students an easy way to meet their first-year engineering peers, and access study groups, community and social events, and upper-year mentors.
