Technician/Technologist Program

Civil Engineering Technology students can complete program requirements within 3 years. The 1st year can be completed at Red River College (RRC) in Winnipeg, or Assiniboine Community College (ACC) in Brandon. ACC 1st year courses are all transferable to Red River College for the 2nd and 3rd year of the technology program and ACC now offers the 2nd and 3rd year courses. Those students not wishing to continue past the first year are eligible for a Civil Technician certificate if the student completes a co-op program or technical certification dependent on the educational institution.

Students complete the two (2) required co-op work terms (approx. 6 months each) from May until the end of October.

Upon graduation, students who choose to further their education to become Professional Engineers can continue on to Lakehead University in Thunder Bay or University of Manitoba to become Civil Engineers.
