Master of Engineering in Electrical and Computer Engineering - Software

Electrical and computer engineers shape the future through innovation. They develop and improve systems that serve everyday needs of society spanning from high-voltage engineering and sustainable energy, to breakthroughs in wireless technology. Our faculty and students do everything from creating low-cost digital x-ray imagers to combat tuberculosis in developing countries, to building real-time embedded systems to advance the design and reliability of commercial products. ECE - the future is what we do. girl with a phone The Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) is founded on leading engineering education and research, a world-renowned co-operative study program, and a bold history of innovation. Waterloo Engineering is ranked among the top 50 engineering schools in the world, our ECE department is committed to sustaining that excellence in our areas of research while venturing into growing areas of opportunity. We attract the best and brightest students and faculty from around the globe, and our graduates are recruited worldwide by leading engineering firms, corporations, government agencies, and research-intensive universities.

A Master of Engineering (MEng) degree is ideal for a recent graduate or professional seeking advanced training to enhance and strengthen a career in the field of engineering. As part of the Master of Engineering degree (MEng), we offer our students the opportunity to specialize in specific areas and earn a Specialization in addition to their MEng degree. Courses taken towards a MEng Specialization will also be counted towards your degree requirements.

Students will learn the concepts, techniques and methods of modern, effective software development. They will gain knowledge in software specifications, design and testing and will be exposed to data structures and algorithms, networking lower and upper layers, data-base systems, knowledge modeling, computational intelligence, component-based software engineering, re-engineering, and network security.
