Message from the UT-IMDI director
I am extremely pleased by the success of the Institute for Multidisciplinary Design & Innovation at the University of Toronto, now in its fourth year of offering industry based summer projects. As our 2015 student project book highlights, we had 24 exciting projects and students. These students demonstrated their skill, aptitude and great work ethic at Bombardier Aerospace, Pratt & Whitney Canada, UTC Aerospace Systems, Defence Research and Development Canada, Honeywell Aerospace, SPP Canada Aircraft, and Litens. Lead by our UT-IMDI Advisory Board of senior managers from amongst our industry partners, we are confident that UT-IMDI will continue to be a beneficial collaboration between academia and industry, in addition to providing U of T Engineering students with the best access to gain practice in the field.

Industry Sponsored Projects
UT-IMDI provides University of Toronto’s Faculty of Applied Science and Engineering (FASE) undergraduate and graduate students with real-life training opportunities by involving them in practical, industry-based projects. It is a vehicle to promote awareness of design and development challenges facing industry, with an emphasis on its multidisciplinary nature, and evolving technology. Projects are developed by industry in close collaboration with the institute, and are based on real industry design and development needs.
Multidisciplinary Capstone Design Course
The Multidisciplinary Capstone Design Project (MCP) is a full year course that provides Engineering students with an experience in multidisciplinary engineering practice through significant, client-driven, open-ended, design projects. Students from across the Faculty work in teams to address stakeholder needs through the use of creative and iterative design processes.
