Prospective Undergraduates

Our Bachelor's of Applied Science (B.A.Sc.) undergraduate program combines hands-on activities with traditional academic teaching to give students the balance of practical and analytical skills needed to become successful engineers. Mastery of fundamental engineering concepts and application of practical design skills are particularly emphasized.

Our program is fully accredited by the Canadian Engineering Accreditation Board of the Canadian Council of Professional Engineers, which allows students to register as an Engineer-in-Training upon graduation.

To enter the program, students must complete one year of general engineering studies at either UBC campus (Vancouver or Okanagan) or in one of the recognized engineering transfer programs at BC colleges. Entry into the department happens at the end of this general year. Note that only a limited number of seats are available.

Completing your degree after this general year takes an additional three years, or an additional four years with the co-operative education work experience program.
