Program details
Overview
Civil Engineering Technology – General Coop is a diploma program offered by the Collège communautaire du Nouveau-Brunswick (CCNB) that prepares students to work across the main areas of the construction industry. Coursework covers construction plans and specifications, computer-aided design and drafting, cost estimation, and the supervision and control of building and municipal water and sewer projects, together with surveying work and GPS-based data collection for engineering projects. The curriculum includes structural design and materials courses, civil-drafting and modelling software, and site-management topics, and is organized around a cooperative-education format with three work-term placements integrated into the program alongside classroom study. It is offered at the Edmundston campus. It suits analytically minded students who enjoy technical drawing, calculation, and fieldwork, and who are considering careers as civil-engineering technologists, drafting or surveying technicians, or construction estimators.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: Domestic admission requires a New Brunswick high school diploma (regular, modified, or adult programme), GED, or CCÉA, with Mathematics 30411B or 30411C and Physics 51311. Applicants who do not meet this pathway, including those 21 or older, may instead pass the CCNB admission test; international applicants need an equivalent secondary diploma plus this test, with Physics equivalent to Grade 11 or higher. Some textbooks, references, and software used are in English. As with all CCNB programmes, applicants whose mother tongue is not French, or who have not completed at least three years of French-language secondary schooling or a French-language postsecondary programme, must demonstrate French proficiency through the TFI (minimum score 700), TCF or TEF Canada (level B2), DELF (B2), or DALF (C1).
Application Details
Start Date:September
Application Deadline:Collège communautaire du Nouveau-Brunswick publishes no fixed application opening or closing dates, for either domestic or international applicants, for the autumn or winter session; the selection process begins in November for the following academic year, and complete applications are evaluated on a rolling basis as they are received. Rather than calendar deadlines, CCNB publishes a list, refreshed each cycle, of which programmes currently have admissions open (a 2026-27 list is live, covering Automne 2026), and it recommends applying early because some programmes draw more applications than seats available. Once an offer is made, domestic applicants have 30 days to confirm their place, while international applicants have 21 days. No separate international application deadline exists; the same rolling process applies to international applicants. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
