Program Description
The Engineering Business and Safety Management Graduate Certificate Program is a unique program developed for international students with an engineering degree (e.g. civil, mechanical, industrial, and others). It will enhance their knowledge and skills in the specialized area of engineering business and safety management.
The program is designed to enable students to meet the demand in the engineering, industrial and construction sectors for staff with expertise in the areas of project management, occupational health and safety management, human resources, and contract and cost management. In the fourth semester, the 15-week work integrated learning component will provide a hands-on learning experience. It may take the form of an intensive applied learning project or a work placement. It will strengthen the students’ engineering management skills and increase their preparation for employment upon graduation.
Please note: The number of approved work placements is limited and the College does not guarantee a work placement position for every student in the fourth semester. While the College will provide some assistance to qualified students seeking a work placement, not all students will qualify, nor will all be successful in securing an approved placement. An alternative work integrated learning opportunity will be provided. Work placements are generally unpaid and must be pre-approved by the Program Coordinator.
