Mechatronic Systems Engineering Undergraduates
Mechatronic Systems Engineering students integrates cyber and physical realms, turning theory into practice with hands-on experiences to create technology for social good.
Launch Your Career with Co-op
The Mechatronic Systems Engineering co-op program is a mandatory -- and paid – work placement program that gives our students invaluable real-world experience.
How It Works
Your co-op experience includes three work terms in research or industrial facilities, often designing and building real products. After completing your co-op, you’ll return to campus for at least one final academic term.
At least two of your three mandatory co-op terms must be completed in industry (MSE 293, 393, 493). Students may participate in additional work terms but are encouraged to seek diversity in their experience. The three mandatory work terms may include one special co-op term (MSE 294,394 494). Special co-op may include, but is not restricted to, self-directed, entrepreneurial, service or research co-op work terms. Permission of the MSE co-op office is required.
An optional non-technical work term (MSE 193) is also available through the MSE co-op education office and is often completed after the first two study terms. MSE 193 does not count toward the mandatory three-course requirement.
The MSE co-op program can also seek opportunities for students wishing to complete their thesis requirements in an industrial setting.
