Overview

Bachelor of Science in Engineering (Civil)

The first Civil Engineering lecture in Canada was held here at UNB in 1853.

Civil engineering is a professional engineering discipline that deals with designing, constructing and maintaining the physical and naturally built environment in the private, municipal and federal sectors.

Civil engineers work on solving many of the world's largest problems today. 

Civil engineers develop sustainable, safe, and environmentally appropriate answers to basic human needs, from highways and pipelines to water treatment plants and energy-efficient buildings.

The Civil Engineering program is available as a major as part of a four-year Bachelor of Science in Engineering degree.

UNB Engineering graduates have gone on to help design, build bridges, and make cleaner fuels and next-generation wireless communications tools. 

Hands-on learning:

  • Co-operative Education (Co-op) program

Technical Elective:

The research thesis is an independent project conducted under the supervision of a faculty member over a period of two sequential semesters.
