After completing Western Engineering’s Common First Year, students can enrol in the Software Engineering program with an opportunity to complete an Embedded Systems or Health Informatics Option in fourth year.

This option focuses on embedded systems, which are computer systems with a dedicated function within a larger mechanical or electrical system, often with real-time computing constraints.

Health Informatics is the emerging field of collecting, storing, retrieving and presenting health related information. This option provides training on issues related to handling such information as well as issues on security, privacy and integrity.

NOTE: Please note the English scores listed are minimum requirements. Meeting the minimums does not guarantee admission. Students with low English scores may be admitted to the English BOOST Program, a 9 week training program for conditional admission to their chosen program.
