In April 2022, Ryerson University changed its name to Toronto Metropolitan University, which will be implemented in a phased approach. You will see the Ryerson name across campus, online and in our official communications for a period of time. Learn more about our next chapter.
Electrical Engineering (BEng)
Where You Belong
Jean-Paul realized during his first semester that Electrical Engineering was his right-fit program. He likes the discipline because it enables him to put theory into practice and develop valuable job-ready soft skills, such as communication and collaborative teamwork.
Is It for You?
Electrical engineers shape the technology that powers our world – from computer systems to electronic devices and power transmission systems. You’ll use your knowledge of engineering principles and practices to design, develop and implement electrical circuit relationships, electronic devices, integrated circuits, microprocessors, computers and control systems. Apply your skills with an optional paid co-operative internship, an optional specialization in Management Sciences and leading-edge research projects. In your final year, you can further specialize in Digital Hardware Design, Communication Systems, Signal Processing, Control Systems or Power Systems.
Program Format(s)
Full Time: Four Year; Five-Year Co-operative Internship Program
Degree Earned
Bachelor of Engineering
Accredited by the Canadian Engineering Accreditation Board.
