Diploma in Early Childhood Education - Intensive

at Sheridan College - Davis Campus Canada

After building a strong foundation of mechanical engineering design knowledge in your first two years, you’ll study more specialized subjects in your final two semesters. An understanding of niche concepts such as mechanical design and simulation, kinematics, building facilities layout, HVAC, sustainable design and design analysis may lead to better career opportunities when you graduate.

Gain real-world experience and build connections
Sheridan’s labs simulate the workplace, but they can’t completely replicate it. Put your new mechanical engineering skills to work for our industry partners in two 12-month paid co-op terms: one after your third semester and another in your third year of studies. You’ll also collaborate with peers to help our partners resolve a real-world issue in your capstone research project.
