Study Data Analytics & Artificial Intelligence at U of T Engineering
Our Master of Engineering students can choose from a wide range of technical emphases, including Robotics & Mechatronics and Analytics. Within the Engineering Science program, undergraduates can major in Robotics or Machine Intelligence — the first program of its kind in Canada to specialize in the study, development and application of algorithms that help systems learn from data. Undergraduates in our core engineering disciplines can pursue complementary studies in Robotics & Mechatronics through multidisciplinary minors.

It doesn’t have a brain and survives on rotting vegetable matter — but it could offer valuable insights into city planning, according to a team of U of T researchers.
Physarum polycephalum is a slime mould, a single-celled amoeboid organism that grows as a greenish-yellow system of veins. These veins form a tubular network that is optimized to transfer nutrients efficiently throughout the entire organism.
Slime moulds first ‘forage’ broadly over an area, then refine their tubular network to optimize for transport of the nutrients
