The Faculty of Sustainable Design Engineering at UPEI offers a progressive and innovative four-year Bachelor of Science in Sustainable Design Engineering degree which recognizes the need for a broad and balanced engineering education. 该课程遵循当前工程教育的趋势，并注重学生的成果. Small class sizes within an activity-based learning environment allow faculty and staff to be student-centric and to provide specific and timely input to individual students.
学生将接触到广泛的工程科学知识和技能基础, natural science, mathematics, and complementary studies in concert with an applied project-based design stream simulating the engineering profession. 进入学位课程的学生将从第一天开始积极从事工程专业, 为社会问题提供创造性和可持续的解决方案. The degree program is designed to provide a highly flexible learning environment that is responsive to the dynamic needs of students and the industries that employ them.

Following his father's advice to study in North America, Prabhakar从毛里求斯来到UPEI参加独特的工程项目.
In addition to fundamental science, engineering science and mathematics courses, 要求学生培养工程设计技能, communication, analysis, project management, professional ethics and more. With a solid grounding in these fundamentals, 三年级和四年级的学生可以通过选择一个工程重点领域来提高他们的技术知识:
- mechatronics
- sustainable energy
- bioresources

Our student experience
You'll draw on the experience of your classmates, other senior students, professors, 以及知识渊博的行业专家，为代表所有行业和部门的客户解决现实问题.
我们的一年级学生以亲密的方式介绍设计工程, activity-oriented, project-based environment. Dedicated faculty members work closely and interactively with clusters of students to solve design problems in a controlled environment for community organizations and private enterprises.
Second-year students work on projects related to mechanical and/or electrical design using the same iterative design process experienced during their first year, 但随着客户咨询责任的增加, reporting requirements, design drawings, analysis, and prototype development.
In students' third year, project work shifts to industry projects related to mechatronics—designing and building functioning prototypes and conducting in-depth quality analysis—to produce industry-sponsored prototypes capable of deployment for testing in an actual industrial environment.
Fourth-year students work on projects that involve the design and optimization of systems in a wide variety of applications related to bioresources, sustainable energy, and mechatronics. 这些项目具有更高质量设计的潜力, prototypes, patents, and, in some cases, commercialization.
Engineered by design
It is increasingly recognized that understanding basic science and mathematics are only two of the many areas that are essential to professional engineering practice. Engineering students in this program must make responsible decisions based on good judgment and an ability to justify decisions within a structured analytical framework. Based on this generalist philosophy, 这个项目旨在培养学生的思考能力. This fundamental requirement of engineers to think critically in response to ever-changing and complex situations is accomplished through a design stream core which relies heavily on inquiry-based learning supported by traditional lecture-based knowledge. The progression in complex thinking skills occurs over the duration of the four-year program and beyond through appreciation of lifelong learning and professional development.
An integrated, stream of project-based design clinic courses through all four-years of the program provides students with the opportunity to develop knowledge and skills through working on real community and industry-based projects. Traditional content courses are delivered via an integrated and timely approach so that professional practice skills are developed in a simulated workplace environment. This program emphasizes design as an essential element of engineering as reflected in the Community Design Program (Year 1), 以及初级设计(二年级)和高级设计(三年级和四年级)诊所.
以下核心设计课程必须连续学习，以支持学生的发展技能.
