Overview
Our degree programs in Civil Engineering are jointly taught with the University of Ottawa through the Ottawa-Carleton Institute for Civil Engineering (OCICE). The MASc and PhD programs at Carleton University require the completion of a thesis while the MEng is predominately course-based with the option of a research project.
Career options
Our location in the nation’s capital allows for proximity to and collaboration with the National Research Council Canada, Natural Resources Canada, Environment Canada, Heritage Conservation Directorate, Canada Green Building Council, Parks Canada and many heritage sites including the Parliament Buildings, Rideau Canal, Royal Canadian Mint, etc. Career opportunities are just around the corner.
