The Faculty of Engineering at Dalhousie University is a faculty of Dalhousie University in Halifax, Nova Scotia.

History

The Faculty of Engineering was officially founded on 1 April 1997 with the merger of the Technical University of Nova Scotia (TUNS) into Dalhousie University. Dalhousie University had previously established an engineering faculty in 1905, but it was expensive to maintain, and in 1906, it was merged into the TUNS, which was established by a consortium of provincial universities and other interested bodies.[1]

The Faculty of Engineering traces its history to the School of Engineering at TUNS and the Department of Engineering's 2-year diploma program of the Faculty of Science at Dalhousie University.

  • Civil and Resource Engineering
