Message from the Associate Dean
The Sustainable Design Engineering program integrates a stream of project-based design clinic courses that allow students to develop knowledge and skills by working on real industry-based projects. Students in the Faculty of Sustainable Design Engineering are equipped with the most recent tools for solving engineering problems and introducing new design features that incorporate all the sustainability pillars to the industry and society. The Canadian Engineering Accreditation Board accredits the UPEI Sustainable Design Engineering program. Thus, students will learn from certified Professional Engineers in Canada, and graduates of the program will go beyond the local borders to compete globally.
Dr. Rasha El Shafei
Associate Dean
The Sustainable Design Engineering program provides students with unprecedented opportunities to gain their degree via a client-focused, project-based model delivered in an intimate learning environment that is hallmarked by mentoring and collaboration with faculty, industry, and community organizations.
