Program list & descriptions

Electrical and Computer Engineering ( Doctorate )

The Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) was established in 1983 as part of the Faculty of Engineering, which was founded at the same time. There are distinct advantages to the relative newness of the faculty: experienced academics have been recruited from around the world; laboratory facilities contain some of the latest and most sophisticated equipment available; and the curriculum has been developed to take the lead in 21st century technologies. Cooperative education as well as work as a research or teaching assistant are an integral part of the ECE graduate program.

Co-operative education opportunities

What is co-op?

Co-operative education (co-op) is a learning strategy that lets you:

  • alternate your academic studies with paid, relevant work experience in your field of study
  • enrich your academic studies by drawing on practical, real-world experience from your work terms
  • develop competencies to excel in the workplace
  • potentially pursue work terms related to your graduate research or project
Can you do co-op?

Graduate co-op may be available to students who are pursuing thesis and non-thesis (or professional) degrees. Participation is optional, and admission is determined after consultation with your graduate adviser and department. Contact the co-op program in your degree area for details, or email coopinfo@uvic.ca.

Note: Co-op is not open to one-year graduate degrees, graduate certificates and diplomas, and non-degree graduate students.
