Description | Are you a creative person with big ideas? Looking for a career that will challenge you? Engineers are responsible for solving many of the challenges of modern life. As an engineer, you have the ability to create anything you want – from key rings to robots to airplanes – by using your knowledge of science and mathematics. In the first year of the two-year Diploma in Engineering and Fabrication Technologies program, you will complete the academic courses required for the first year of a bachelor’s degree in engineering at a university. In the second year of the program, you will complete second year academic courses and develop practical skills in design and prototyping that will enhance your resumé if you apply to a Co-operative Education program. You’ll gain experience constructing and programming robots, using a Raspberry Pi to control mechanical devices and using cutting-edge fabrication technologies such as water jet cutters and laser cutters. | | |
