…and state-ofthe-art computing
resources.
B.Eng. In
Communications Engineering
• First of its kind in Canada
• Concerned with the reliable, effective, and economical
generation, distribution, and reception of information
• Communications Engineers will be responsible for the
planning, analysis and design, implementation,
operation, testing, maintenance, and management of
the communication systems and distributed
information systems that modern society depends on
• Target first year intake: 40

CO-OP @ Carleton
Who Does CO-OP?
• Limited enrolment
• Early Admission from high school:
85% or above in core math and
science
• Apply after fall term of 1st year with
A- or great average
• Apply after fall term of 2nd year with
B or greater average
Why Do CO-OP
@ Carleton?
• Co-op makes sense:
• Enhance your learning
• Job experience = job offers
• Earn while you learn
• Carleton = High tech
• The hot employers are here
• Our faculty members are “plugged in”
• “Progressive Co-op” pattern
• A better work experience
• Fewer hassles
