Program details

Overview

Civil engineering technologists are core members of the teams responsible for roads, bridges, buildings, sewers and water distribution systems, from planning and design through construction and maintenance, keeping transportation running, water flowing and structures safe. The three-year advanced diploma builds a foundation covering surveying, water resources, structural design and municipal engineering. Classroom theory is balanced with hands-on work carried out both in laboratories and out in the field.
