Learning is a creative and multidisciplinary venture in the St. Francis Xavier University's Engineering Department. Here, the history of civilization and the history of engineering are one in the same and faculty have structured the program around that very idea.

Small classrooms and a close-knit atmosphere ensure students graduate with the best possible education – one that allows them to compete for jobs and graduate study opportunities all over the world. With dedicated and talented faculty and some of the most contemporary facilities in the country, it’s no surprise that many StFX engineering students go on to successful, rewarding careers.

Career in Engineering:

Engineers pursue careers in design and maintenance of public works for government agencies, or the day-to-day operation of large corporations, including structural advisory roles, and the development of equipment.

Upon satisfactory completion of industry examinations leading to a Professional Engineering designation (P.Eng.), students find success over a wide range of careers in chemical, civil, electrical, environmental, industrial, mechanical, and mining resource engineering.
