UOIT’s Mechanical Engineering program receives maximum national accreditation

The Canadian Engineering Accreditation Board (CEAB) has awarded the maximum possible national accreditation term of six-years for the Mechanical Engineering program offered by the Faculty of Engineering and Applied Science (FEAS) at the University of Ontario Institute of Technology (UOIT). 

The CEAB has now certified all UOIT Engineering programs its strongest level of endorsement. FEAS engineering programs include: Automotive, Electrical, Manufacturing, Mechanical and Software Engineering. All disciplines provide opportunities to participate in co-op and internship programs, international exchanges and placements, and a five-year Engineering and Management degree.

“The Faculty of Engineering and Applied Science is very proud of achieving this threshold – the CEAB’s affirmation speaks to the quality and depth of our Engineering programs,” said Dr. Tarlochan Sidhu, Dean, FEAS. “I applaud the efforts and teamwork of our entire faculty and staff, which have helped the University of Ontario Institute of Technology achieve this prestigious recognition.”

Engineers Canada oversees the CEAB’s accreditation process, which examines all undergraduate engineering programs across the country and verifies that the highest education standards are being met. CEAB accreditation is recognized internationally and is a mark of a program’s quality.
