Overview

The Energy Systems Engineering Technology program at Centennial College will focus on society’s changing views of energy and the environment, which are transforming the utility and construction sectors. This advanced diploma program will allow the students to learn how to integrate and use modern sustainable energy technologies in a manner consistent with sub-urban environments.

The courses in this program will teach the students the fundamental skills to understand energy and its uses in modern society. This includes a hands-on practice that mimics real-world scenarios. While this applied science program is challenging, it will create a unique blend of technical, managerial and entrepreneurial skills that modern energy and sustainable building companies seek.

Co-op Option

The co-op option will allow you to gain hands-on experience while you complete three co-op work terms as an employee in the field. This experience not only allows you to put classroom learning into practice but will also provide valuable contacts for your future career.

To participate in this co-op option, you must complete an application process in the second semester. If academically qualified, you may be admitted to the co-op program.

When you graduate, your diploma will highlight the co-op credential.
