Engineering uses the principles of math and science to find practical solutions to problems or needs. Engineers develop the technological tools that enable us to live better lives (computer chips, hydro dams, artificial limbs, etc.). Though the field of engineering is diverse the skill set one needs in areas such as biology, water resource management, environmental protection and computing systems are common. Basic sciences, engineering sciences, math, and engineering design are only the foundation courses. An engineering education is much broader. Some have called it the "liberal arts" of the 21st century!
The Faculty of Engineering at the University of Manitoba leads the country in the graduation of design-ready engineers. For the past decade we have been the only engineering school in Canada with an associate dean of design education. The University of Manitoba is the oldest engineering school in Canada, founded in 1907 with programs accredited in Canada and recognized internationally. The Friends of Engineering, an external group of industry leaders, are actively involved in the Faculty, and work to keep our programs relevant.
