Take North America's top ocean and naval architectural engineering program and the only co-operative program in this discipline in the world. Add that we are one of the first universities in Canada to offer process engineering. Combine that with premier undergraduate programs in civil, computer and electrical, mechanical and mechatronics engineering, and a diverse range of top-rate master’s and doctoral programs. Situate the school in one of the most beautiful, pristine locations in the world on the edge of the North Atlantic.

That’s engineering at Memorial University.
