Mechanical Engineering Bridge
Advanced Diploma in Mechanical Engineering Bridge
The Mechanical Engineering Bridge program provides access to the third year of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Victoria (UVic), the University of British Columbia - Vancouver (UBC-V) and the University of British Columbia – Okanagan (UBV-O) for graduate Mechanical Engineering Technologists. Graduates of the Summer offering are destined for UVic or UBC-O in January. Graduates of the Winter offering are destined for UBC-O or UBC-V in September. You’ll study advanced topics that aren’t typically found in technology programs, and you’ll be able to continue your studies toward a Bachelor of Engineering degree at UVic or a Bachelor of Applied Science Degree at UBC.
Mechanical Engineers design and build machines and other products, such as robots, spacecraft, automobiles, artificial limbs, amusement park rides, elevators, and manufacturing equipment. If something moves or uses energy, mechanical engineering was probably involved in its design or production.
Co-operative education is optional at both UBC-V and UBC-O, but it is mandatory at UVic. Co-op work terms are transferable between institutions.
The Mechanical Engineering bridge is a six-month program offered at the Interurban Campus of Camosun College. With two intakes each year, it starts in either January or late June, allowing subsequent entry into the third year of UVic, UBC-V or UBC-O.
