Program Overview

Engineering could be ideal for you. Our one-year certificate prepares you for competitive entry into year two of four-year Engineering degrees at either University of Victoria or University of British Columbia and may be transferable to other engineering programs as well.

Engineering is a great career for those interested in the physical structures and systems in our modern world. The work of an engineer involves analysis, design, planning, construction, and maintenance of structures and systems to ensure the reliable and safe use.

Our Block Transfer agreement with University of Victoria means that once you’ve successfully completed your certificate at the College, you will receive full credit for engineering at UVIC and will be on equal footing with UVIC student when it comes to competitive entry into second year.

Why Consider an Engineering Career?

  • Variety! Choose from civil (structures), mechanical (machines), electrical and computer (circuits and software), chemical and biological engineering (chemical and biochemical processes) or engineering physics (applied physics in the design of new devices).
  • BC median wage ranges from $56,000.00 for electrical & electronics engineers to $72,000.00 for civil engineers.
  • With a large number of current engineers approaching retirement age, qualified engineers will be in demand.

The College of the Rockies Engineering Certificate is designed to satisfy the Year 1 requirements of undergraduate engineering programs at UVIC and UBC; it may also help you transfer into the engineering programs at other institutions.

This Engineering Certificate prepares you to apply for competitive admission to Year 2 programs; it does not guarantee a seat in those programs. You should always check with the receiving institution for details on course requirements and course transfer.
