Chemical Engineering Technology Diploma

As a student in our two-year Chemical Engineering Technology diploma program, you will gain the hands-on skills and knowledge needed to become an expert in the safe and sustainable production of oil and gas resources. You will be equipped with a hands-on and comprehensive education that focuses on the design, development and control of oil and gas processing techniques.Today's chemical engineering technologists are also utilizing digital tools and automation to optimize processes, improve safety, increase efficiency and minimize waste. As a student in our program, you'll have the opportunity to work with these cutting-edge technologies and develop a deep understanding of their applications.With the increasing focus on sustainability and the development of new technologies, chemical engineering technologists will play a critical role in shaping the world for generations to come. Chemical Engineering Technology is a 2-year diploma program that consists of four 15-week semesters. In year one, you'll develop foundational knowledge and skills around oil and gas processing techniques, safety and computer applications. You'll also brush up and grow your math, physics, statistics and calculus abilities. In the second year of the program you'll complete a 5-day training program at the world-class Energy Safety Canada Oil and Gas Production facilities in Nisku. You'll develop a real-world understanding of process theory while optimizing and troubleshooting working process equipment. Between years 1 and 2, you'll be assigned to a 3-week Field Placement with a refinery, government agency or exploration and production (E&P), pipeline or oilfield service company.
