Why a Civil Engineer? Salary is ideal = Approx. 80k a year can increase I’ve wanted to be an Engineer of some sort This type of work won’t take a toll on my body Work I am capable of doing

Short Term Goals Graduate completing Physics, Biology, Chemistry, Math and Computer Science Study harder by reviewing my Math homework since Math is my weak point Gain entrance to UBC for Civil Engineering program

Long Term Goals Become an Engineering Project Manager after attaining my diploma or degree (Masters) in Civil Engineering

Skills High Math/Science and IT Skills are required Being able to explain my plans to others To be able to analyze large amounts of data Communication Skills To be able to work with a team of people Understand the budget you have to complete the project Great Project Management Skills

Years of Education Roughly 4 years for my Bachelors Degree For a Masters I’d have to add an extra couple years of schooling

Post-Secondary Program Undergraduate Program at UBC - leads to the Bachelor of Applied Science (B.A.Sc.) degree in Civil Engineering First two years consist of fundamental courses in mathematics, physics, chemistry, solid mechanics, fluid mechanics and structures The second year program introduces students to civil engineering through a design course In the third and fourth years, students are exposed to a variety of sub-disciplines, including environmental, geotechnical, hydro-technical, structural, and transportation engineering, also exposed to hands on experiences in Lab. Work

Post-Secondary Program Course lasts 2-4 Years Tuition = Approx. $7,112 Program Credits in 1st-year full course load Domestic students International students Student fees1 Applied Science - Engineering 35  $5,936.00  $35,418.95  $1,176.66
