Engineering University Transfer Certificate

Laddering opportunities

This program has been intentionally developed as a bridging program to provide a solid foundation to further education.

The primary laddering destination is the University of Alberta BSc Engineering Program (Second Year), or secondarily, the University of Alberta’s Bachelor of Science program (see below for transfer information and grade point average requirements).

Laddering within the NorQuest environment:

Students who complete the program with a minimum of a 2.0 GPA may transfer to the Arts & Sciences Diploma or related STEM programs in the Faculty of Business, Environment, and Technology at NorQuest College, including:

• NorQuest College’s Arts and Science Diploma with advanced standing awarded for up to 10 courses.
• NorQuest’s Machine Learning Analyst Diploma with advanced standing awarded for up to five courses. 

Transferability

The Engineering University Transfer Certificate program is built around transfer to the second year of the University of Alberta Engineering. All courses in the program will have official transfer status through ACAT to the University of Alberta. 

Students must present a minimum 2.5 GPA to apply for transfer to Year two of Engineering at the University of Alberta.

Students that achieve a GPA below 2.5 may connect with our Academic Program Advisors to explore alternate pathways at a variety of post-secondary institutions.
