Engineering touches everyone's lives in countless ways. The opportunities in engineering are virtually limitless, allowing you to pursue a career in almost any field, in any industry, in any location around the world.
If you thrive in a smaller campus environment with average class sizes of 20 to 30 people, consider doing the first two years of your degree on our Truro campus. After completing your first two years (and earning an Engineering diploma), you will move to the Halifax campus to complete the final two years of your degree.
With an Engineering degree from Dalhousie you will be equipped with the problem-solving skills you need for lifelong exploration in a field that answers some of today’s most pressing concerns. You'll also gain a solid foundation in math and sciences—essential for success in any engineering career.
The first two years, which will be completed in Halifax or Truro, are dedicated to core classes in maths, sciences and engineering sciences and design. Your third year will mark your transition into your discipline - which you can choose to partner with co-operative education. Placement in a specific discipline is competitive and based on academic performance in the first year. The elective classes taken in second year depend on the discipline selected.
