Program Details
Engineering Physics is central to modern technology. Terabytes of data are processed every single second through precise control of electrons on a microchip. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) machines create images of what’s happening inside a human body by measuring changes in the spin of atomic nuclei. And antennas convert data transmitted on electromagnetic waves into colourful visuals and soothing sounds. Technologies like these have thoroughly transformed how we live (or modern life), and they all combine engineering acumen with an advanced knowledge of physics.
Labs and Facilities
In Carleton’s Bachelor of Engineering Physics program, you’ll learn the semiconductor and electromagnetic fundamentals that underpin advanced technology. An Engineering Physics degree will prepare you for a career in next generation technologies, such as quantum devices and organic semiconductors.
Students have access to Carleton University’s Microfabrication facility, one of the only integrated circuit manufacturing facilities at any Canadian university.
Co-op
Carleton offers students a paid Co-op option with work terms of 4, 6, 8, 12 or 16 months.
Work Experience
Ottawa is home to one of Canada’s largest concentrations of government agencies and high-tech companies. Located near campus is Kanata North, Canada’s largest technology park—offering Carleton students a direct pipeline to hundreds of companies looking for talent in engineering physics.
Did you know?
Carleton is home to one of the larger student chapters of IEEE—the world’s largest technical professional organization dedicated to advancing technology for the benefit of humanity. Through IEEE Carleton, students can take part in hackathons, conferences and technical workshops that cover a wide range of topics including MATLAB, CAD, robotics, IoT, VR and AR.
