SECOND Year Program

Students proceeding to second year in the Bachelor of Applied Science (Okanagan) are guaranteed placement into any of the engineering programs at the UBC Okanagan campus: Civil Engineering, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or Mechanical Engineering. Check out the information on Program Selection and more details on the course requirements of the programs in Course Planning.

After first year, students can also apply for consideration to transfer to the UBC Vancouver campus into one of the following programs: Biomedical Engineering, Chemical and Biological Engineering, Civil Engineering, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Engineering Physics, Environmental Engineering, Geological Engineering, Integrated Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, Materials Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or Mining Engineering. UBC Vancouver’s 2nd Year Placement is competitive. Admission to a selected program is dependent on performance in first year.
