The first-year engineering curriculum is designed for students continuing in one of the following programs in second year: Chemical, Civil, Computer, Electrical, Industrial, Materials, Mechanical or Mineral Engineering. Students are admitted to one of these programs or TrackOne on entering first year. This guarantees a place in a program in subsequent years, subject to maintenance of satisfactory standing. Students who complete first year with a clear record in one of the above programs may request to transfer to another program (see Academic Regulations for details). Students in TrackOne or who wish to transfer at the end of first year must submit their requests to the First Year Office no later than the deadline as listed in the Sessional Dates section of the Calendar. 

The academic year consists of two terms, Fall (September through December) and Winter (January through April). Students typically take five 0.5-credit courses plus one partial-credit seminar each term. Timetables, detailing which courses students will take in each term, will be provided to students in August. The first-year curriculum is shown in each program section, with the TrackOne Undeclared Engineering first-year curriculum shown below:

TrackOne is the general First Year curriculum of the Faculty. Students admitted to this program transfer to one of eight Engineering Programs, including Chemical, Civil, Computer, Electrical, Industrial, Mechanical, Mineral, or Materials Science Engineering, after the successful completion of the First Year curriculum, as listed below.

Approved Course Substitutions

  1. Students are able to substitute MAT186H1 with the online calculus course APS162H1.
  2. Students are able to substitute MAT187H1 with the online calculus course APS163H1.
  3. Students are able to substitute APS110H1 with the online course APS164H1.

TRANSITION PROGRAM IN FIRST YEAR
The Transition Program (T-Program) enables students in First Year who have been placed on probation after the Fall Term to immediately repeat a maximum of three courses and defer up to three Winter Term courses to the Summer Term (May and June). Full-time students must carry five courses during the Winter Term.

The courses offered in the Winter Term are:
APS110H1: Engineering Chemistry and Materials Science or APS164H1 Introductory Chemistry from a Materials Perspective
APS111H1: Engineering Strategies & Practice I
CIV100H1: Mechanics
MAT186H1: Calculus I
MAT188H1: Linear Algebra

The courses offered in the Summer Term are:
APS106H1: Fundamentals of Computer Programming and APS105H1: Computer Fundamentals
ECE110H1: Electrical Fundamentals
APS112H1: Engineering Strategies & Practice II
MAT187H1: Calculus II
MIE100H1: Dynamics

Courses to be dropped from the Winter Term and courses to be taken in the Summer Term will depend on the student’s program of study and will be decided by the First Year Office.
For details regarding the T-Program Promotional Regulations, please see the Academic Regulations portion of the calendar.
