Advanced College Diploma - Civil Engineering Technologist (CIV3/CI3J)

By integrating science and engineering concepts with industry-specific technologies, civil engineering technicians and technologists assist in the monitoring and inspection of civil infrastructure projects. An education in civil engineering can offer many opportunities – leading to rewarding careers both in the office and out in the field, in areas such as construction management, estimating and inspection as well as infrastructure design and drafting. By integrating science, engineering and sustainability concepts with industry-specific technologies, civil engineering technicians and technologists participate in the successful completion of civil infrastructure projects such as public transit, land development, municipal services and resource management.

Experiential learning: This well-rounded program combines classroom instruction, hands-on learning, both outside (in the field) and inside, in the Building Sciences Lab using industry-standard equipment. • Get a strong foundation in surveying techniques, drafting principles and computer applications, using programs such as AutoCAD and AutoCAD Civil 3D and ArcGIS. • Gain skills in structural, municipal and highway design, drafting, materials testing, surveying, inspection, construction supervision and project estimating, to name a few. • Apply engineering theories in the industry-standard materials testing facility. • Year one is common with the Construction Engineering Technician program, allowing for ease of transfer. • Obtain the academic requirements of the Ontario Association of Certified Engineering Technicians and Technologists (OACETT) or transition to a university degree in Canada or abroad.
