Mechanical Systems Engineering - Co-op This program is accredited by Engineers Canada. Graduates are qualified to register as Engineers-in-Training (EIT), part of the process to full license as practicing Professional Engineers (P .Eng.). The MSE program offers over 3,000 hours of applied learning centered on practical engineering projects. It is geared to motivated individuals looking for challenging careers in the dynamic and growing advanced manufacturing industry. Graduates of the program will be prepared to assume leadership roles in the critical engineering disciplines of product and system design, process design and process control. The MSE program is innovative and challenging, delivered using a project based curriculum in which the students learn by doing. As they work through four years of increasingly demanding and complex projects, students progress from the technical basics to advanced leading technologies in design, manufacturing and automation.
