The School of Engineering within the Faculty of Science and Engineering offers an Honours bachelor of applied science (BASc Honours) degree in engineering. After completion of a common first-year program, students will choose one of four available programs: computer engineering, geomatics engineering, software engineering or space engineering.

i) All BASc Honours degree candidates must complete the engineering program core: SC/CHEM 1000 3.00; SC/CSE 1020 3.00; SC/CSE 1030 3.00; SC/EATS 1010 3.00; SC/ENG 1000 6.00; SC/ENG 1001 1.00; SC/ENG 2001 3.00; SC/ENG 2002 3.00; SC/ENG 3000 3.00; SC/ENG 4000 6.00; ES/ENVS 2150 3.00; SC/MATH 1013 3.00; SC/MATH 1014 3.00; SC/MATH 1019 3.00; SC/MATH 1025 3.00; SC/MATH 2015 3.00; SC/PHYS 1010 6.00; SC/PHYS 2020 3.00.

ii) All BASc Honours degree candidates must complete 12 non-science general education credits (refer to General Education Requirements in the Faculty of Science and Engineering Regulations Governing Undergraduate Degree Requirements section).

iii) All BASc Honours degree candidates, in accordance with their declared stream, must satisfy the academic standing and course requirements below.

To graduate in the BASc Honours program requires successful completion of all Faculty requirements and program and stream required courses and a minimum cumulative credit-weighted grade point average of 5.00 (C+) over all courses completed.

Computer Engineering Stream

A non-credit, four to 16 month internship program (registered as SC/ENG 3900 0.00) is highly recommended for all engineering students, but is not a degree requirement.

Engineering Physics Stream

Note: the Faculty of Science and Engineering will not be accepting applicants for the engineering physics stream in 2011-2012.

Software Engineering Stream

A non-credit, four to 16 month internship program (registered as SC/ENG 3900 0.00) is highly recommended for all engineering students, but is not a degree requirement.

Space Engineering Stream

A non-credit, four to 16 month internship program (registered as SC/ENG 3900 0.00) is highly recommended for all engineering students, but is not a degree requirement.

Geomatics Engineering Stream

A non-credit, four to 16 month internship program (registered as SC/ENG 3900 0.00) is highly recommended for all engineering students, but is not a degree requirement.

Engineering and International Development Studies Dual Degree

Students in the engineering and international development studies program choose one of the engineering program streams, plus the international development studies requirements. Graduates are awarded both BASc and BA degrees.

  • All engineering and international development studies dual degree candidates must complete the engineering program core (see above);
  • the declared stream requirements (see above);
  • the international development studies requirements as follows:
    • the international development studies core: AP/SOSC 1430 9.00; AP/SOSC 2800 6.00; AP/SOSC 3800 6.00;
    • 12 credits, including: at least six credits in each of two areas of concentration (see below); at least six credits at the 3000 or 4000 level, and at least three credits must be in humanities.

Note: for purposes of meeting international development studies program requirements, all nine-credit humanities or social science general education courses will count as six credits towards the major.

To graduate in the BASc (Honours) and international development studies programs requires successful completion of all Faculty requirements, program and stream required courses and a minimum cumulative credit-weighted grade point average of 5.00 (C+) over all courses completed.

International Development Studies Areas of Concentration

Not all of the courses listed below will necessarily be offered in any given year. With the approval of the program coordinator, and subject to course exclusion and residence requirements, students may complete other courses in international development studies.
