This program reflects the technological changes that are affecting the industry – indoor air quality, refrigerant conversion and recovery, energy conservation and management. It also provides you with the broad technical knowledge and skills that employers require. Throughout this program you develop skills in many aspects of the trade including electrical and control systems, installation, maintenance, repair, and servicing of basic heating, ventilation, air conditioning, and refrigeration systems for residential and commercial application.
This program prepares you to succeed in 3 major areas of the construction industry: building design, construction, and inspection. You learn all design aspects of commercial and residential buildings, including architectural, structural, plumbing, and electrical to name just a few. You learn to prepare architectural and engineering design drawings, cost estimates, material specifications, and technical reports. You also acquire important computer skills such as computer-aided drafting (CAD), Building Information Modeling (BIM), word-processing, and spreadsheets.
This career calls for a curious and creative mind. The Mechanical Engineering Technologist supports the engineering activities of design, fabrication, installation, testing, servicing, and maintenance of electro-mechanical equipment and systems. Technology changes rapidly and requires a strong grasp of fundamental concepts to respond easily and imaginatively to challenging problems. Computer-aided design (CAD) is utilized throughout the program. Strong analytical and critical thinking skills are an asset.
The role of an Industrial Engineering Technologist is to determine the most effective way to produce a product or provide a service, and ultimately, help organizations exercise better control of production, service, quality, costs, and deployment of resources. To do this, Industrial Engineering Technologists need to understand and examine factors such as production, people, machines, materials, information, and energy requirements.
In this program, you learn and apply engineering principles and practices to analyze and solve complex technical problems, test and analyze materials and structural elements and research and prepare graphical and other technical documents. You also learn to interpret the National Building Code and other Codes, Standards and Regulations appropriate to the practice of civil engineering.
Throughout the program you develop skills and knowledge for groundwater exploration and evaluation, supervision of water well drilling programs, water resources management, water chemistry, remedial operations in response to ground and surface water contamination, sampling and data collection and analysis, water well and well field design, facilities maintenance and engineering inspection, civil engineering, and water and waste water testing and treatment.
This guide offers insight on the mining process and how Aboriginal peoples can leverage law and policy to generate economic benefits from mining operation in their region.
This report has been compiled to provide additional guidance for preparing manuals that outline procedures for the safe operation, maintenance and surveillance (OMS) of tailings and water management facilities.
A Guide to the Management of Tailings Facilities provides a basis for the development of customized tailings management systems that address the specific needs of indi- vidual mining companies and local regulatory and community requirements.
The following list indicates the phases of the cycle where various employment opportunities in mining exist. The list also identifies the level of education and/or on-the-job training needed to work in these occupations. It is important to note that related work experience is also an asset or may be required, depending on each company’s hiring practices.
