雪尔顿学院

Theory is important, but so is the opportunity to put it into practice. Because our electrical engineering degree is one of the few in Canada that embrace the CDIO Initiative (Conceive, Design, Implement and Operate), you’ll spend up to 50% of your class time working in labs. By using the systems you build, you'll learn what it takes to imagine and develop user-friendly solutions.

Career Opportunities

As a graduate of Sheridan's electrical engineering degree program, you'll be prepared to perform electrical engineering work in the energy or automation sectors.

Fields you could potentially work in include:

Embedded Systems Design
Energy Distribution
Energy Generation
Energy Transmission
Instrumentation and Control
Mechatronics
Power Systems Protection and Control
Robotics

Learning Outcomes

Graduates of this program will be able to:

Create sustainable solutions through applications of mathematical, scientific and fundamental engineering concepts, methods and techniques.
Solve complex problems, using appropriate knowledge and skills to identify, formulate, and analyze feasibility, technology, environmental impact, and economic assessments.
Validate conclusions from investigations of complex engineering problems by methods that include relevant experimentation, data collection, analysis, interpretation and synthesis.
Design a system, component, or process that meets regulatory and industry standards and considers health and safety risks, economic, environmental, cultural and social impacts.
Demonstrate proficiency in the techniques, skills, and tools necessary for electrical engineering practice with an understanding of the associated limitations.
Perform as an effective team member and leader in collaborative and multi-disciplinary settings.
Communicate technical concepts and issues effectively with both technical and non-technical audiences.
Explain the roles and responsibilities of the professional engineer in society.
Analyze the impact of electrical engineering solutions in a global, economic, societal, environmental and public safety.
Demonstrate ethical conduct, accountability and equity consistent with the requirements of the profession.
Incorporate economics and business practices, specifically entrepreneurship and project management skills, into practices of engineering.
Develop self-leadership strategies to enhance personal and professional effectiveness that is responsive to a rapidly changing world.
