Why a new 5-year program? Why Public Policy?
• An extra year for courses in public policy
• Public policy courses allows:– to understand the meaning of
public policy in a democratic society, and
– as practicing professionals, to better apply technology in an ethically and socially beneficial and just manner
• In Canada, EPP degrees are only at the graduate certificate and MA level (e.g. McMaster University, University of Toronto, University of British Columbia).
How this will Enhance Student's Professional Career
• Have another designation that will set students apart from others applying for the same jobs
• Give students the basis to understand basic political and policy processes that could relate to their engineering discipline in the workplace
• Understand policy issues related to outsourcing, privacy, piracy, infrastructure, commerce etc.. that relate to their engineering field
Admission requirements
• APPLY in 3rd year (2nd semester)
• ENTRY in 4th year• REQUIRED grades
CGPA of 3.0 or higher• PREQUISITE SSCI
