Program details
Overview
Welding Engineering Technology is a diploma program offered by the Collège communautaire du Nouveau-Brunswick (CCNB) that prepares students to apply engineering principles and technical skills to the design and engineering of welding and assembly systems, working toward roles as welding specialists or supervisors. First-year coursework covers blueprint reading, computer-aided drafting, edge-cutting and preparation processes, and applied welding techniques such as SMAW on ferrous metals, while the second year adds robotic welding systems, fracture-surface analysis, weld-quality management, and Canadian and international welding codes and standards. Theoretical and practical components are coordinated to simulate real work conditions in specialized laboratories and workshops equipped with industry-standard machinery, and the program includes an applied workplace stage. The 74-week program is offered at the Bathurst campus and leads to a diploma in Welding Engineering Technology, preparing graduates for roles such as non-destructive-testing inspectors, technical sales specialists, and supervisors in metal-forming and fabrication trades.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: Admission follows CCNB's Profile D: a New Brunswick high school diploma (regular, modified, or adult programme), GED, or CCÉA, with Mathematics 30321B or 30331C. Applicants who do not meet this pathway may instead pass the CCNB admission test; international applicants need an equivalent secondary diploma plus this test. Transcripts containing adapted, modified-expectations, or essential-skills coursework, and applicants under 21 who do not meet the standard requirements, undergo a supplementary evaluation.
