Energy and Environment Specialization
Please note that the Energy and Environment Specialization is not a degree program. Students may opt to participate in specialization programs on top of their degree (e.g. studying towards a degree in Chemical Engineering, with an Energy and Environment Specialization added on).
The Energy and Environment Specialization (ENEE) is the only program of its kind in Canada; it provides education and training necessary for understanding, avoiding, minimizing, and (effectively and efficiently) solving industrial challenges related to the impact of energy utilization on the environment. It prepares high-quality undergraduate students for careers in engineering that link energy and the environment. The ENEE specialization can be completed in parallel with a regular BSc degree in Chemical, Civil, Electrical, Geomatics, or Mechanical Engineering. That is, students will be trained in a traditional engineering discipline while obtaining interdisciplinary knowledge of direct and indirect environmental impacts of energy-related activities, including its exploration, generation, production, storage, transformation, transportation, transmission, usage, and recovery.
At the end of their first year, students will apply to the energy and environment specialization when they apply to one of five programs. Students will be admitted first to a program, and then to the specialization.
Entrance into this program is competitive, as it is limited to 25 students each year.
