Earning an engineering degree from UWindsor
will help you make the world a better place in
many rewarding ways.
As an engineer, you will have the opportunity to
help plan communities, provide clean drinking
water, build bridges or design automobiles.
Engineers use their knowledge to creatively solve
the practical problems that face our society.
Your education will begin with a broad base
of fundamental science, mathematics and
engineering in courses common to all programs.
Our curriculum emphasizes analysis, synthesis
and design. In fourth year, you will undertake
a design project working closely with a faculty
advisor.
In fall 2012, we welcomed the first class to
our new, $112-million, Ed Lumley Centre for
Engineering Innovation.
When you enter the new Ed Lumley Centre for Engineering
Innovation (CEI), you will not only walk into an architectural
marvel, you will step into the future.
From day one, the CEI was designed to become a regional address
for innovation, and to elevate UWindsor’s teaching and learning
experience to a level of technical sophistication that rivals any
post-secondary institution in Canada.
Spanning 300,000 square feet, it offers state-of-the-art
classrooms, dynamic research laboratories and collaborative
spaces to give students real-world experience in the various
disciplines of engineering.
Explore emerging fields such as environmental sustainability,
alternative energy, nanostructures, lightweight materials and
more efficient manufacturing systems.
Constructed tomeet the highest environmental standards, the CEI
features a green roof, water recycling, low-energy heating and other
sustainability systems. Thoughtfully constructed to provide learning
opportunities throughout the facility, students in the future will be able
to access monitoring points that measure the building’s electrical,
mechanical, civil and environmental engineering systems at work.
