Technology has always been intertwined with healthcare, but the relationship is more important than ever before. From robotics to nanotechnology and wearable devices. Biomedical engineers help save lives and improve patient care. At Western, you’ll get the training you need and even do your own research thesis. The biomedical engineering program at Western is typically taken in the fourth year, expanding on foundational knowledge built from other disciplines (listed below) to prepare students for research in the field
- Chemical and biomedical engineering
- Electrical and biomedical engineering
- Mechanical and biomedical engineering
- Mechatronic systems and biomedical engineering

Sustainability is a big problem these days. Chemical engineers help protect the environment by designing ways to sustainability transform raw materials, living cells and microorganisms into the things you use every day – plastics, medicines, food and fuels.

Build essential infrastructure. Solve environmental problems caused by industrialization. Improve communities, the environment and quality of life. Choose structural or environmental engineering. Or try one with international development. Civil engineering can also be taken with the same combined/concurrent degree options listed for chemical engineering. There are 4 main streams for civil engineers:
- Structural Engineering
- Environmental Engineering
- Structural Engineering with International Development
- Environmental Engineering with International Development
- degrees with international development take courses investigating different technologies that are better for use in foreign nations (with specific recognition given to the differences in development levels in these nations)
Western has programs in big data, game development, cybersecurity, financial modelling, and more. Outside the classroom, you can develop your entrepreneurial and communication skills for start-up projects, or work one-on-one with faculty on a funded summer research project.

What’s next has incredible power. Maybe it’s harnessing conventional or alternative power sources. Maybe it’s carried through data networks and digital signals. Maybe it’s put to work to improve or repair the human body. Electrical engineers shape power into useful patterns. Electrical engineering can be taken with the combined/concurrent degrees listed for chemical engineering, as well as an additional concurrent degree with biomedical engineering. Technical electives available for electrical engineering students include:
- Information Communication and Transmission
- Power Systems
- Biomedical Engineering

Complex world problems like climate change, renewable energy, and food and water security require complex solutions. Integrated engineers know how to do it all. They work across fields and lead teams who take an interdisciplinary approach to come up with practical solutions. Integrated engineering can be taken with all the combined and concurrent degrees listed for chemical engineering

Build what’s next using fundamental engineering concepts and contemporary design principles: new devices, new processes and systems, new materials, smart materials, automotive and aerospace systems, conventional and alternative energy systems, and robotics and controls. Mechanical engineering can be taken with all the combined and concurrent degrees listed for chemical engineering. Mechanical engineering can also be taken in a concurrent degree with biomedical engineering. Additional specializations taken in the fourth year of studies include:
- Fluid and Thermal Systems
- Control Systems
- Nuclear Energy Systems
- Manufacturing
- Robotics
- Production Management
- Materials Science
- Biomechanics

Robotics. Aerospace. Automotive. To create mechatronic systems, it takes mechanical, electrical and software engineering. You'll use your skills in all of these disciplines to find solutions to everyday problems. Mechatronic systems engineering can be taken with all the combined and concurrent degrees listed for chemical engineering. Mechatronic systems engineering can also be taken in a concurrent degree with biomedical engineering
