An innovative joint initiative offered by the Engineering and Health Sciences Faculties, combining Civil Engineering with biomedical disciplines to pioneer advancements in sustainable infrastructure. The multidisciplinary skills in our Civil Engineering Department allow us to tackle major biomedical engineering challenges aimed at creating healthier societies. Our research encompasses analyzing pathogen movement in groundwater systems and their environmental and public health consequences.

We also investigate contaminated water flow (containing substances like radionuclides or heavy metals) through fractured geological formations. Furthermore, the department maintains an active research focus on assessing hydraulic fracturing's systemic risks to underground water sources.

Qualification Requirements

Entry requirements may vary from country to country. Students are required to complete Grade 12 high school diploma equivalent to Canadian qualification.

Admission to either the B.H.Sc. (Honours) Health, Engineering Science and Entrepreneurship (HESE) specialization or the B.Eng.BME Biomedical Engineering (BME) specialization requires successful completion of all non-elective Level I IBEHS courses with a minimum Grade Point Average (GPA) of 4.0.

All students who successfully complete the first year of the program will have a space in one of the two degree options. As enrolment is limited in each of the two degree options (HESE or BME), where there is more demand than spaces, competition will be based on first-year academic achievement.
