Overview
Humber’s Bachelor of Engineering program begins with a common platform of first-year courses that provide foundational engineering knowledge and skills. Following the first year, the curriculum branches into three different discipline areas:
- Information Systems Engineering
- Mechatronics
- The Built Environment
The Bachelor of Engineering – The Built Environment discipline provides hands-on experience with industry-standard advanced technology. In upper years students choose from a focused study in sustainable building or built environment information systems. They solve real industry and community problems and gain knowledge and skills in civil, architectural, structural, and environmental engineering. These abilities are in high demand as the industry explores using innovative and resilient technologies and processes to make the construction of buildings and communities safer, more efficient and sustainable.
Students use digital design applications and data capture technologies such as 3D scanning and mapping to integrate new and sustainable elements of the built environment into existing buildings, communities and cities. Virtual and augmented reality complement a design thinking approach to solving real-world problems.
Co-op
A co-op work program (three consecutive work terms, 420 hours each) ensures that work-integrated learning experiences are woven into the curriculum. This gives students a contextual understanding of the industry and specific sectors they are training for and recognition of the importance of hands-on experience.
Canadian Engineering Accreditation Board (CEAB)
The Bachelor of Engineering – The Built Environment is designed to meet the accreditation requirements of the Canadian Engineering Accreditation Board (CEAB). Humber will be eligible to apply for CEAB accreditation upon graduating the first cohort of students.
Career opportunities
Graduates of this engineering discipline will find careers in construction, architecture and urban design as project managers, consultants, estimators, BIM designers and co-ordinators, and geomatics and infrastructure specialists, as well as in other emerging areas related to the industry.
