问题解决者可以通过在VIU接受工程证书的实践教育来为当今的挑战构建解决方案。在温哥华岛大学就读的第一年，开始获得工程学学位。小班授课和个人关注，动手学习以及关心您成功的老师将帮助您成功。Engineering Foundations证书是学生获得UBC，SFU和UVIC工程课程学位的桥梁。如果符合要求的GPA，VIU的工程转移计划的毕业生将获得入学的UBC，SFU和UVIC工程计划的二年级保证。本地和国际对工程专业毕业生的需求都很高。与仅完成高中课程的学生相比，完成工程学的学生可以期望较高的就业率，并获得
Problem solvers can build solutions to today's challenges through the practical education of an Engineering certificate at VIU. Get started on your path to an Engineering degree, with your first year at Vancouver Island University. Small classes and individual attention, hands-on learning and instructors who care about your success will help you succeed. The Engineering Foundations certificate acts as a bridge for students to obtain their degree at UBC, SFU, and UVIC Engineering programs. Graduates of VIU's engineering transfer program gain guaranteed acceptance into second year at UBC, SFU, and UVIC Engineering programs if they meet the required GPA. Demand for engineering graduates both locally and internationally is high. Students completing engineering can expect relatively high employment rates, and a considerable salary premium compared to those who completed only high school. Most engineering disciplines are represented through UBC and UVic. UVic provides electrical, software, computer, civil, biomedical, and mechanical engineering, while UBC provides electrical, computer, mechanical, civil, engineering physics, chemical, etc. Students are encouraged to examine each institution's websites for current offerings.
