At UNB Saint John, students will get off to a great start while enjoying the benefits of our small campus and class sizes. Our diploma in engineering foundations gives them a strong base before transferring to our Fredericton campus or another university to complete their four-year degree program.

The two-year diploma program provides them with a basic understanding of scientific principles and a foundation in engineering, mathematics, design and technical communication. After a general program of study in their first year, they will focus on one of five engineering disciplines (Civil, Chemical, Electrical, Mechanical, Software) in their second-year.

Note: Admission to the Civil, Chemical, Electrical and Mechanical disciplines is competitive and is based on academic performance in their first year of the diploma program. Students admitted to the Software discipline in their first-year will be eligible for the diploma in their second-year of the program
