Welcome

The Environmental Engineering Program is a unique program that is offered jointly by the University of Northern British Columbia in Prince George, and the University of British Columbia in Vancouver. Students in the program benefit from the culture and strengths of both institutions and graduate with a fully-accredited Bachelor of Applied Science in Environmental Engineering.

If you are interested in engineering, and in preservation of our natural environment, then this may be the program for you.
