Overview

Student in manufacturing lab. Practice hands-on learning in Canada's only accredited Manufacturing Engineering program of its kind and develop skills in additive, subtractive and traditional manufacturing.

If you're interested in applying to the Manufacturing Engineering program without co-op, apply via the Ontario Universities' Application Centre (OUAC) using OUAC code DEM. 

If you're interested in applying to the Manufacturing Engineering (Co-op) program, apply via OUAC code DCU. 

Developed in consultation with industry, our Manufacturing Engineering curriculum provides a solid grounding in the fundamentals of mathematics, computing, and science, with significant content in engineering sciences and design. The only accredited program of its kind in Canada, this unique program emphasizes the design, development, planning, improvement and application of advanced manufacturing processes.

You’ll learn about advances in materials and composites, robotics, automation and intelligent controls while considering the integration between tools, processes and equipment with cutting-edge manufacturing facilities and systems.

Foundation year

All engineering students begin with a common foundation year, regardless of the program of study. During the foundation year, you will learn about the various engineering programs available. 

Engineering and Management

There is a need for engineers with management skills. Complement the technical studies of your engineering program with business and management courses by pursuing the five-year Bachelor of Engineering and Management (Honours) program.

Women in Engineering

A multi-year support program to help female engineering students explore opportunities and careers, gain experience in the workforce, make a successful transition to a career in engineering and find lifelong success in a professional engineering career.  View more information about our Women in Engineering program.

Admissions

Admissions


Current Ontario secondary school students must complete the Ontario Secondary School Diploma (OSSD) with six 4U or 4M credits including English (ENG4U) with a minimum grade of 60 per cent, Advanced Functions (MHF4U), Calculus and Vectors (MCV4U), Chemistry (SCH4U), and Physics (SPH4U). In addition, a combined minimum of 70 per cent average in prerequisite math and science courses is required, with no grade below 60 per cent. Applicants with credentials from outside Ontario should visit the Admissions section.

Note: Admission is competitive. The specific average or standing required for admission varies from year to year. Students are selected by taking into consideration a wide range of criteria including school marks, distribution of subjects taken, and performance in subjects relevant to the academic program. Possession of the minimum requirements does not guarantee acceptance. Preference will be given to applicants with the best qualifications.
