Engineering Systems and Computing / Computer Engineering

Our ES&C and Computer Engineering researchers work on a wide-variety of areas including, but not limited to: computing systems, sensor networks, communication systems, multimedia, software & hardware engineering, machine learning and artificial intelligence, nano-scale circuit design, mechatronic systems and manufacturing systems.

This breadth of expertise positions us well to push the boundaries of tomorrow’s technology in an effort to find potential solutions to some of the problems facing our society as a whole.  Aligning well with the rest of the School of Engineering and the University of Guelph’s research expertise, the Engineering Systems and Computing / Computer Engineering group is striving to make a difference every day by driving these answers while also training and preparing the next generation of highly qualified engineers who will strive to further this pursuit.
