Engineering physics students learn how to understand electrical systems from two perspectives: an engineer knows how to use a transistor while a physicist knows why the transistor works. This program is demanding and multidisciplinary, and students graduate with qualifications to go on to graduate school or directly enter the industry.
Engineering Physics is an option in the Engineering Science program in the Faculty of Applied Sciences. It is an honours program, so requires a specific grade point average to graduate.
