| Description | Cross boundaries. Connect the dots. Look at the bigger picture. Systems Design is designed for people who want the rigour of an engineering degree plus the flexibility to explore topics outside traditional engineering disciplines. You'll examine the people, materials, tools, software, and other factors involved in any engineering problem. You'll learn to look at the system as a whole and assess how one change will affect another element, using a variety of modelling, analysis, and design methods. Waterloo offers career preparation unlike any other university in Canada. You'll earn money, access North America's largest selection of co-op jobs, and graduate with 2 years of valuable work experience. | | |
