College Diploma - Engineering Technology - First Year to Computing Systems Engineering Technology (Co-op) (Transfer to Ridge Road Campus)

Engineering Technology:

The college offers a common first year in Engineering Technology. This allows students to complete the first two semesters of the engineering technology program that they have been accepted to. After completing the first two semesters, students must enter the campus which offers the program of their choice to complete the seven week Intersession (May, June), and the subsequent years of their program.

Computing Systems Engineering Technology: 

The Computing Systems Engineering Technology (Co–op) program prepares students for the field of scientific and engineering computing. A combination of programming theory and practice, networking, and electronics ensures the graduate will be prepared to work in the fields of cloud computing and mobile device application development, as well as develop the foundation for the emerging fields of machine learning and Big Data.

As engineering technologists, graduates of this program will have the knowledge and skills that will allow them to:

• Analyze, build, implement, and maintain computing systems and applications.
• Design, develop, and implement relational database management systems.
• Develop applications using object-oriented programming methods and practices.
• Design and develop applications for mobile devices such as smart phones and tablets.
• Prepare a quality assurance plan for testing and evaluation of software.
• Design and implement computing systems suitable for cloud computing applications.
• Specify, select, design, build, and troubleshoot micro-processor or micro-controller based systems.

Note: Students will spend their first two semesters at Carbonear campus before transferring to Ridge Road campus to complete the rest of their degree. This program may not be suitable for applicants who do not have normal colour perception.
