Since its inception in 2003, DEEP has brought together over 4000 like-minded students to explore some of the most innovative topics in engineering and science today—taught by some of our Faculty’s top Alumni, Ph.D. and Masters students. This program has been designed to expose bright young minds with an aptitude for math and science to concepts and topics beyond the regular secondary school curriculum.

Courses are designed into subject areas or “streams” for the first three weeks of DEEP. Week 4 of DEEP is called DEEP Design Week. DEEP Design Week offers capstone courses that challenge students to put their knowledge to the test by tackling real-world engineering design projects. DEEP Design Week gives students a hands-on look at what engineering design is all about. Students wishing to participate in DEEP Design Week must also take at least one DEEP course in Weeks 1, 2 or 3. *optional week at Gull Lake for the DEEP Leadership Camp
