Wilfrid Laurier University has announced the launch of its first engineering program. WLU will launch a Bachelor of Engineering in Software Engineering program at its Milton campus in Fall 2026. The program will include personalized learning experiences, small class sizes and faculty-student mentorship, and work-integrated learning components. “Software Engineering will not only broaden our successful research and academic programming in STEM, but it will also create significant links to business and industry through research and co-op opportunities,” said WLU President Deborah MacLatchy. The program was designed to meet Canadian Engineering Accreditation Board requirements, ensuring that graduates will be able to pursue their Professional Engineering designation.
