BSc Mechanical Engineering

The University of Toronto Scarborough (UTSC) offers a Bachelor of Science (BSc) in Mechanical Engineering, a 4-year undergraduate program delivered through the university’s Faculty of Applied Science & Engineering. This program provides students with a solid foundation in mechanical systems, materials, thermodynamics, and design. It’s designed to prepare graduates for real-world challenges across diverse industries such as automotive, aerospace, energy, and advanced manufacturing. Students develop a strong understanding of both theoretical concepts and hands-on applications, enabling them to design, build, and optimize mechanical systems.

Curriculum Structure:
The program is structured to balance core theory with experiential learning. Students complete a blend of foundational and specialized courses that include:
• First-Year Foundation: Courses in physics, chemistry, calculus, linear algebra, and engineering fundamentals.
• Core Mechanical Engineering Courses: Topics include fluid mechanics, heat transfer, materials science, mechanical design, control systems, and dynamics.
• Engineering Design and Laboratories: Practical training through design projects and lab courses, helping students apply concepts in real-time.
• Capstone Design Project (Fourth Year): A team-based final-year project that integrates the skills and knowledge gained across the degree to tackle a real engineering challenge.

Accreditation:
The program is fully accredited by the Canadian Engineering Accreditation Board (CEAB). This ensures the degree meets national standards for professional engineering and qualifies graduates for the path toward licensure as Professional Engineers (P.Eng.) in Canada.

Campus Location:
UTSC is located in Toronto, Ontario, offering a vibrant academic environment and access to one of Canada’s most diverse and innovative cities. Mechanical Engineering students benefit from state-of-the-art labs, maker spaces, and research facilities, fostering creativity and innovation.
