12.10 ACADEMIC PROGRAMS
12.10.1 LENGTH AND SEQUENCING OF SYSTEMS ENGINEERING PROGRAMS
All Systems Engineering programs are 136 credit hours (46 courses) in length, including a common first year. Pursuing a double major or minor will increase the number of courses required.
Students are encouraged to consider the Co-operative Education Program (see §12.9).

Course requirements and sequencing are shown in the following sections.
12.10.2 SYSTEMS ENGINEERING MAJORS
Students must choose one of Electronic Systems, Industrial Systems, Environmental Systems, Petroleum Systems, or Software Systems.
12.10.2.1 Selection of a Major
At the start of the second study semester, students are required to complete an internal application (forms are available from the Faculty Office) for the program of their choice. The application forms are to be returned to the Faculty Office by March 1. The form asks students to identify their first, second, and third choices for a major. Registration in some programs may be limited. Fully qualified students who have submitted their applications by March 1 will be assigned to a program based on PGPA; every effort will be made to give students their first-choice program. Students applying after the deadline will be accepted on a first-come basis as long as they have the required qualifications and there is room in the desired program.
12.10.2.2 Double Majors
A double major is permitted, provided that students meet the course requirements for each program. Students must consult the Associate Dean (Academic) for approval.
12.10.2.3 Concurrent Programs
Normally, concurrent programs will not be available in the Faculty of Engineering and Applied Science. Students who are interested must consult the Associate Dean (Academic).
