The Engineering Advantage
Our prestigious program not only appeals to students like you, but also attracts quality faculty members. In the College of Engineering, your professors will be top researchers who are eager to pass their knowledge on to you. You'll be working with and learning from highly qualified engineers in their respective fields, and your success is as important to them as it is to you! Their leadership and expertise will provide you with the education necessary to become a leader in the workforce.
Hands-on Learning
Engineering at the U of S involves hands-on education. You will use state-of-the-art technology in the laboratories to learn, experiment and test your ideas. From our wind tunnel to our anechoic chamber, our facilities can help you make textbook concepts tangible.
Succeeding Together
Education in our college is about more than sending you home with challenging assignments. You can work with other students from your classes and other disciplines to get the most from your eduation, whether working on homework, building a space elevator or finishing a design project. We have tutor registries and learning centres to help you succeed, and your professors are ready to support you as you make your way through your academic career.
The First-Year Experience
Engineering is one of the most spirited colleges on campus. Throw on your toga, hop in the back of our red pickup and cruise through the heart of campus! We paint the town red with engineering pride and provide opportunities for an unparalleled student experience. We dominate college challenges and Friday Night Lights Huskie home games and enjoy a friendly rivalry with the Agros. We can't wait for you to join the fun!
We want to make your transition from high school as easy as possible, and to this end, we essentially register you for almost all of your first-year classes.

Making a Difference
Our engineering students have a reputation for helping out and supporting our local community, developing nations and everything in between.
Our students raise thousands for
local charities in creative ways. Really, who doesn't want to smush pie in the face of a favourite friend or prof? Our annual road hockey tournament, the High Voltage Classic, raises about $15,000 each year for charity and has been a tradition in the college for 25 years.
Our
SCI-FI Science Camps are your opportunity to bring big science to life for little engineers to be. As a student, you can become a teacher, helping children build LED-lit insects or join them in astronaut training for a day!
Whether it's clean water for the world, food for developing nations or sustainable energy supplies for those that don't have them, one of our many student groups,
Engineers Without Borders, is making a difference in devloping nations and winning national awards for their work.
