Engineering Streams - Fall 2025

Welcome to UWaterloo Engineering. Most plans are single-streamed, which means there is only one stream for the plan. Four plans are dual-streamed with both 4 and 8-streams.

You can search for your stream using your UWaterloo student ID number.

Students admitted to dual-streamed plans were divided between 4 and 8-stream randomly. As advertised, students admitted to Chemical, Computer, Mechanical, or Mechatronics are able to present their circumstances and request a specific stream by June 2nd, 2025. More information on the study-work sequence is provided in the academic calendar.
