Program Overview
Graduate with the knowledge you need to shape the machinery and technology that powers our world, from biomechanical implants and energy-efficient systems to thermofluid systems and consumer products.
Program Outline
Your next four years
First and second year
Focus on the foundations of engineering science and learn about the mechanics of materials and the fundamentals of manufacturing.
Third and fourth year
In your third year, decide whether to specialize in mechatronics engineering with a view to creating smart products or, alternatively, take a variety of technical electives. In fourth year, collaborate on a large-scale design project, leaving you well-equipped to start your career.
Your degree
Your degree will be recognized internationally and allow you to become a Professional Engineer (PEng) in Canada. That’s because, as of 2026, our undergraduate engineering programs in Cairo will receive the same distinction granted to our programs in Toronto: accreditation by the Canadian Engineering Accreditation Board (CEAB).
