Bachelor of Arts in Political Science

at University of Alberta - North Campus Canada

The Computer Process Control curriculum is built around the Chemical Engineering program core. You will take all the required chemical engineering courses (including material and energy balances, thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, heat transfer, separation processes, and chemical reactor analysis), as well as additional specialized courses that help to develop your skills as a computer process control engineer.

Co-op option
This degree can be taken as a Co-op (co-operative education) program. Through the Co-op program, you will have the opportunity to complete paid, supervised work terms throughout your degree. Co-op programs are great way to challenge yourself, gain relevant work experience, and make connections to industry before you graduate! Most co-op programs include five work terms lasting four months each, in addition to the usual eight terms (four years) of full-time study. Therefore, co-op programs require five years to complete.

The Bachelor of Science General degree offers a wide variety of majors and minors, allowing you to create a diversified degree based on your interests. Majors must be in Science, but minors can also be from courses offered by Arts; Business; or Agriculture, Life and Environmental Sciences. You can also take a double major in Science.
