Overview

Certificate - Engineering

Engineers are thinkers and builders who apply science and math to every aspect of modern life. 

They design and develop the products and processes that we use every day. 

Engineering is a solid career path leading to high-paying jobs and satisfying work.

You’ll learn how to make your mark in physical structures in this first-year Engineering Transfer (Applied Science) program.  

By starting your studies with us, you’ll get a strong background in math and physics and a firm foundation for your degree’s remaining three years.

Selkirk College follows the First-Year Common Engineering Curriculum. 

You can complete your first-year science, math, and engineering requirements with us and take any prep courses if you don’t already have the necessary prerequisites. 

Completing this certificate program allows you to transfer your credits towards an engineering degree at UBC, UBC Okanagan, SFU, UVic, or the University of Alberta. 

Most of Selkirk's first-year engineering courses transfer to universities across Canada.

Completing the Selkirk College Engineering Program within one year has transfer benefits, including guaranteed admission to University of British Columbia Okanagan if all requirements are met!
