Leverage your Technology diploma through our engineering bridge programs. At Camosun, we'll equip you for an Engineering career and provide direct admission into third-year studies at UVic or UBC. These bridge programs are designed for technology diploma graduates aiming to pursue third-year engineering studies at UVic or UBC to complete their engineering degree. Take this crucial step toward becoming a Professional Engineer. Experts in industry and education concur that combining a Technology diploma with an Engineering degree produces the most sought-after engineers. You'll develop practical, hands-on skills alongside comprehensive knowledge of advanced engineering coursework. Camosun's Engineering Bridge programs stand out nationally as an exceptional pathway from a technology diploma to an Engineering degree (UVic) or Applied Science degree (UBC).
Mining engineering focuses on maximizing mineral resource extraction while reducing environmental effects. This field demands extensive understanding of both engineering and scientific principles. The UBC Bridge option runs from September to April. You'll begin third-year studies in UBC Vancouver's Bachelor of Applied Science program each September. After UBC admission, you can join the Co-operative Education program, where some technology diploma work terms may qualify for transfer between institutions. The Bridge program also offers an optional internship work term that's eligible for transfer.
