The Engineering Certificate is a rigorous undergraduate program covering chemistry, computer programming, communications, engineering design, mathematics, and physics.
This qualification provides guaranteed admission to second-year engineering programs at the University of Alberta's Faculty of Engineering. NLC students must familiarize themselves with UofA's transfer requirements. Although second-year entry is assured with a minimum GPA, placement in specific engineering disciplines remains competitive for all applicants.
