Approved Upper Year Non-Technical Elective Courses

Non-technical electives (NTE's) are courses that complement your Engineering courses in order to satisfy mandates from the Canadian Engineering Accreditation Board (CEAB). You can choose your NTEs from courses designated as Category A (Social Science) or Category B (Arts & Humanities), as defined in Western’s Academic Calendar.

In the Academic Calendar, under Courses, each subject area falls under a Category. After looking through the Category A and B subject areas, please use the Official Timetable to see which courses are offered in a given year.

As always, if you are unsure about your non-technical elective choice, or need help choosing one, please contact your Academic Advisor.
