The Department of Mechanical & Industrial Engineering at the University of Toronto will be inviting top students from across Canada to Toronto to learn more about our graduate programs during Graduate Research Days 2018. This exclusive opportunity will give attendees a first-hand look at what U of T Engineering can offer, and a chance to meet our world-renowned faculty, alumni, current graduate students and admissions staff.
This year’s event will take place on Thursday, February 22 to Saturday, February 24, 2018 as part of a faculty-wide event.

Computer Science and Industrial Engineering
With a computer science background, consider exploring the exciting world of applied mathematics called Operations Research (OR), which combines mathematics, statistics, computer science, machine learning, physics, engineering, economics, and social sciences to solve complex real-world problems that are valued by the industry.
Computer science students may also be interested in Information Engineering as well.
Information Engineering is the engineering of information, knowledge, and decision support processes, and the systems with which they are delivered. Generally, the goal of IE is to support the achievement of organizational objectives through the efficient and flexible operation of business processes. Information engineers form a bridge between the technical side (software engineers, data modelers) and the business side (business analysts, process planners, managers) and create the necessary methodologies and tools to ensure organizational success. They primarily focus on the strategic role of information systems and determine their use in reaching business goals. Information Engineers not only think about how to build information systems, but also why.

Connect with Current Students: We have plenty of students who came from a non-engineering background (including mathematics, science and more). Click here to view student profiles, where you can learn more about their background and even connect with them.
