Course Description

Program Description UTP Stage II: Engineering Science provides first-year courses and the foundation for progression to the second year of SFU's School of Engineering Science degrees. Students enrolled in an Engineering Science degree program at SFU complete three terms of full-time paid work experience during their degree. This program is meant for students with a minimum of a Grade 11 education or equivalent and an IELTS overall score of 6.0 with a minimum of 6.0 in Reading and Writing and 5.5 in Speaking and Listening or TOEFL overall score of 79 and a minimum of 18 in Reading and Writing, that would like to pursue a post-secondary education at Simon Fraser University. The program begins with an 8-month foundational program, including a mandatory English literacy course, followed by 12 months of a faculty-specialized academic program equivalent to the first year of university at SFU. Admission into the Simon Fraser University is not guaranteed - students must meet progression requirements as well as any program-specific entry requirements highlighted by the the University in order to gain admission. 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.
