Civil engineering

Considering a career in Civil Engineering? BCIT's 4-year full-time Bachelor of Engineering in Civil Engineering contains an optional exit after year two where you can earn a Diploma of Technology in Civil Engineering Technology. These credentials will provide you with the skills to practise in this popular field as either a civil technologist or as a civil engineer, and also allow you to get on the path to further studies.

Civil technology part time studies and distance education

BCIT’s Civil Technology programs provide continuing education and professional development opportunities for individuals in various civil technology fields. You can take just one or two courses or complete an Associate Certificate, Intermediate Certificate, or Certificate of Technology. If, however, your goal includes a Diploma of Technology or a Bachelor of Engineering Degree, you will need to enter the full-time Civil Engineering program, and you should be aware that there is no advanced placement into that program. If you already have a Civil Engineering degree or diploma, download our information sheet for Internationally-trained Professionals [PDF, 61.6 KB].
