Faculty Of Applied Science & Engineering - University Of Toronto

The University of Toronto’s Faculty of Applied Science and Engineering is one of Canada’s oldest engineering schools. It all began in 1873 with the creation of the School of Practical Science—a single red brick building that offered students instruction in mining, engineering, mechanics and manufacturing. The School of Practical Science, also known as the “Little Red Schoolhouse,” officially became a part of the University of Toronto in 1906 and its name officially changed to the Faculty of Applied Science and Engineering.
Since 1873, the Faculty has had roughly 50,000 students graduate as engineering professionals ready to impact the world around them in nearly every industry and area. Throughout our incredible history, we have consistently drawn inspiration from the exceptional men and women that have made their mark not only within the Faculty and University communities, but also 1n the field of engineering. This is evidenced by the hundreds of awards and honours received by members of our Faculty over the years.
While the face of the Faculty has changed over the last 136 years to include a wider range of engineering programs, new technology, facilities, and a broader global perspective, it is with the same spirit and vigor that current Engineering students and faculty continue to make strides in the field of engineering—improving the lives of others around the world.
In the Sandford Fleming Building (10 King’s College Road) on the St. George Campus, you will also find a physical Hall of Distinction that displays the portraits and stories of our outstanding alumni.
