Bachelor of Science in Engineering - University Transfer

Professional engineers apply principles of science and mathematics to solve real-world problems and achieve practical goals through innovation. This field requires a creative mind, scientific knowledge and powerful problem-solving skills. As a career choice, it is broad, rewarding and applicable to every part of society. This program is offered in partnership with the University of Alberta. The program is based on the first year of Engineering at the University of Alberta, and is designed to transfer in full to the U of A.The first year of studies at RDP will provide you with fundamental skills in mathematics, computing and science. You will apply this learning to solve engineering problems in such courses as Engineering Statics, Dynamics and Design.Work-integrated LearningWork-integrated learning opportunities will depend on the area of focus you choose. Learn more about the many types of experiential learning opportunities available at Red Deer Polytechnic through the Career Education and Experience Development Centre.Further StudyThe courses in this program can be transferred in full to University of Alberta; some classes taken in the first year are also transferable to University of Calgary, and other institutions outside of Alberta (if you decide to transfer out-of-province, you'll need to be in contact with the institution you plan to attend). You must decide on the transfer university when you enter the program. It is imperative that students who will apply to University of Alberta take the full first year in one academic year.Related CareersMechanical Engineer Civil Engineer Biomedical Engineer  ComputerSoftware Engineer Electrical Engineer Environmental Engineer Petroleum Engineer Chemical Engineer Mining Engineer Materials Engineer  AviationAerospace Engineer
