Suggested Sequence of Courses

Courses shown in both terms may be taken in either term.

¹The complementary studies course Engineering 213 or Communications Studies 363 is a corequisite for third year course Geomatics Engineering 451 and a prerequisite for third year course Geomatics Engineering 455. Students must complete the course during or before the Fall Term of their third year.

²Two week field camp normally held prior to the start of the Fall Term.

³ Fall and Winter.

The program requirements listed below assume that students admitted to Geomatics Engineering via the Polytechnic Transfer Pathway have been granted transfer credit for Communications Studies 363, Geomatics Engineering 343, 351, 363, 421, 431 and 435, Mathematics 211 and 275. Students admitted without one or more of these transfer credits will be required to complete the corresponding course(s) in addition to the requirements shown below.

All students admitted to Geomatics Engineering via the Polytechnic Transfer Pathway must also complete Engineering 319 (or an equivalent course) prior to graduation or through transfer credit for prior studies.
