Work Integration Learning - Co-operative Education

One of the most competitive engineering programs at UBC, Engineering Physics prepares students for both R&D and traditional engineering positions. The unique five-year program provides comprehensive training in engineering along with a strong foundation in mathematics, physics and applied technologies. The program also provides hands-on experience to our students via instrument design (Robotics Competition) and project labs to prepare them for solving challenging technical problems in the workplace. Some students have won recognition for their outstanding extra-curricular accomplishments.

Engineering Physics students are well integrated into industries like aerospace, alternative energy research, robotics and automation, nanotechnology, electronics, optics and photonics, biotechnology, and software development. By understanding the theory behind new ideas, students play a critical role in the process of taking new ideas from concept to application.
