Enhance your science and engineering skills by learning what you need to know to manage a technology-intensive department or to launch a technology-based business with the TME diploma. This flexible five-course program is open to all undergraduate students and professionals.
You’ll learn essential skills in business management, entrepreneurship, and financial literacy while expanding your network and knowledge base through a wide variety of special events, workshops, seminars and hands-on projects with community leaders.
There are two ways to get your TME diploma:
The program is part of the Faculty of Engineering, however, students from all science, technology and business backgrounds are encouraged to apply. A minimum of 80 credit hours or equivalent from an approved post-secondary program or relevant business experience is required to enroll.
TME electives and non-TME pre-approved electives may be taken at any point during a university program but undergraduate students are encouraged to apply in their first and second years.
The DTME requires completion of five courses with a minimum grade of C. Of the five courses, three TME core courses must be completed. You can choose the remaining two elective courses from the list of TME core courses, the list of TME elective courses, or from the pre-approved non-TME electives. Check the course lists for more details.
A maximum of 12 credit hours of courses may be shared between the DTME and a degree program. Students are responsible for consulting the UNB Undergraduate Calendar, or consulting with their academic advisor, to determine the maximum concurrent credit hours for their degree program.
Once you complete all the requirements to graduate, you must also apply to graduate.
Product Design and Development is a unique full-year course (Fall/Winter) which may be taken in place of the final-year capstone design course in most engineering programs. The course offers teams the opportunity to conceive, design and prototype a product. Through the program, students learn customer validation methods while meeting with potential partners and customers and have access to mentorship from community leaders.
