This two-year diploma specialization provides students who have completed their Civil Technician certificate with an opportunity to learn about civil technology in greater detail. Learn about terrain analysis, fluid mechanics, geotechnical materials, groundwater flow and analysis, roadway design, and water and wastewater piping system design—all with an emphasis on project management.
Students will use the drafting and problem-solving skills learned in the Civil Technician certificate to develop real industry infrastructure designs and plans that could be built in the field. Throughout student’s final year, they plan and create an Applied Research Project using the skills they’ve honed throughout the program. Students can participate in two cooperative work placements and gain experience in real-life industry conditions.
Students can enhance their technical skills in surveying and AutoCAD and learn how environmental features like construction and water affect infrastructure. In this program, students will focus on project management, planning, and communication to ensure they are ready for career responsibilities in this field.
