In Canada, the Canadian Engineering Accreditation Board is responsible for accrediting undergraduate engineering physics programs, [1] [2] graduate study in aerospace engineering is also available at several Canadian post-secondary institutions, though Canadian post-graduate engineering programs do not require accreditation.
In 2014, U of G Physics majors became the first undergraduate physics program in Canada to require a science communication course, [25] culminating in an annual STEM Week event. Alongside the College of Biological Science and the Ontario Agricultural College, CEPS created BattleSTEM [26] (formally known as the Guelph Science Olympics), in 2009 ...
Regulation and licensure in engineering is established by various jurisdictions of the world to encourage life, public welfare, safety, well-being, then environment and other interests of the general public [1] and to define the licensure process through which an engineer becomes licensed to practice engineering and to provide professional services and products to the public.
Engineering training in Kenya is typically provided by the universities. Registration of engineers is governed by the Engineers Registration Act. A candidate stands to qualify as a registered engineer, R.Eng., if they are a holder of a minimum of four years of post-secondary Engineering Education and a minimum of three years of postgraduate work experience.
Engineering technologists often assist engineers; but after years of experience, they can also become engineers. [1] Like engineers, areas where engineering technologists can work include product design, fabrication, and testing. Engineering technologists sometimes rise to senior management positions in industry or become entrepreneurs.
STOCKHOLM (Reuters) -U.S. scientist John Hopfield and British-Canadian Geoffrey Hinton won the 2024 Nobel Prize in Physics on Tuesday for discoveries and inventions in machine learning that paved ...
Established in 1871, the mining engineering program is the oldest in Canada, [15] and oldest of its kind in North America. In the mid 1960s mining engineering at universities in Canada was suffering. Toronto closed its school; McGill had only one undergraduate student and its Professor of Mining was due to retire. [16]
The CAP High School Prize exam is offered across Canada once a year, usually in early April, and aims to challenge physics students on their physics knowledge. [6] It is a national exam and the top participants are invited to try out for the Canadian Physics Olympiad international team trained by volunteers from the University of British Columbia.
