Diploma in Construction Engineering Technician at Sault College in Sault Ste. Marie, Canada is a diploma in Engineering & Technology programme. The programme runs for 2 years, delivered on campus. Teaching is in English. Tuition for international students is CAD 16,208 per year (CAD 3,035 per year for local students).
Over two years, students learn to interpret and prepare specifications and blueprints, follow sustainable construction methods, run surveying equipment, and support construction layout and estimating, gaining hands-on experience with tools, equipment and construction-materials testing alongside AutoCAD and Civil 3D software. A co-op placement in the summer before the second year adds real-world experience with a local employer, and coursework in municipal services, soil mechanics, structural analysis, project management and law, technical communication, concrete and framework, estimating, surveying, mathematics and carpentry builds the knowledge required to assist supervisors, engineers and contractors across residential, commercial, industrial, institutional and government projects.
