Engineering physics bridges electrical engineering, mathematics, applied physics, and natural sciences, equipping students to solve complex challenges at technology's cutting edge.
At the University of Alberta, our Engineering Physics program begins with rigorous training in mathematics and physics, then advances through hands-on research in fields like AI, microelectronics, robotics, autonomous systems, and quantum computing. This combination of technical knowledge and engineering problem-solving abilities makes our graduates valuable assets across diverse industries.
Students can enroll in the Co-op option, which integrates paid, supervised work terms into the academic journey. The Co-op experience provides professional challenges, practical industry exposure, and valuable networking opportunities before graduation.
Our Faculty of Engineering ranks among Canada's finest, boasting world-class faculty, advanced laboratories, cutting-edge learning environments, and specialized research facilities.
The program emphasizes practical learning through research involvement and collaborative projects, both in academic settings and beyond. Situated in western Canada's energy and resources hub, we offer exceptional industry connections and unparalleled career placement prospects.
