土木工程学士学位（非合作社）

土木工程计划的特点是卓越的技术多样性
One of the oldest of engineering professions, Civil Engineers are responsible for the design, construction and maintenance of our ever-changing world. From the physical to the naturally built environment, Civil Engineers are dynamic professionals who build infrastructure such as highways, bridges, marine structures, residential and commercial buildings, water treatment solutions, and more.<br><br>Our program culminates with design experience, with an emphasis on problem formulation, alternative investigation, system and element-level design, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills. The combination of fundamental knowledge and skills, together with an awareness of the context and impact of engineering work, provides our graduates with a platform to launch careers in a broad range of areas within the discipline of Civil Engineering.<br>In the first two years of your degree, all engineering students complete the Core Engineering Program. This Program can be taken on the Sexton Campus in Halifax, or the Agricultural Campus in Truro. You will study core courses in math, science, engineering science and design, providing you with a broad foundation in engineering.<br><br>At the end of your first year, you can apply to one of our six tailored engineering disciplinesincluding Civil Engineering. Placement in a specific discipline is competitive and based on academic performance in the first year.<br><br>In the third year of your degree, you will transition into your discipline and can choose to combine your degree with co-operative education.<br><br>Our Civil Engineering program covers basics and fundamentals in sub-disciplines of Civil Engineering (i.e. environmental, geotechnical, structural, transportation and water resources engineering). We strive to maintain a balance between classroom lectures and active learning laboratory components. Students will learn how to design buildings, bridges, roads, water and sewerage systems, dams, traffic systems, environmental infrastructure and much more. Students can obtain certificates in Structural, Geotechnical, Water Resources and Environmental Engineering. We are home to some of the top researchers in these areas in the country.
