A) NEW COURSES ENGINEERING‐ none CHEMICAL ENGINEERING CHE 5416 Bioseparations Science and Engineering 3ch (3C) The first part of the course will provide basic information on biochemistry (small biomolecules and macromolecules) and engineering analysis, such as analysis of biological activity and purity. The second part will cover a number of separation techniques, such as extraction, crystallization and drying in a more general way. This emphasis in this part of the course will be on liquid chromatography and absorption. Offered on Registrar’s Warrant in Winter 2012. This course represents an undergraduate version of the graduate course CHE 6416. Creating a new course permits simultaneous timetabling, so that undergraduate and graduate students may attend the same lectures. Different assessment tools will be used for the different courses. CHE 5515 Advanced Surface Characterization 3ch (3C, 1L*) [W] This course covers the basic principles and practical aspects of several advanced surface analysis techniques which include (i) X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS or ESCA), (ii) secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS), (iii) confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM), (iv) atomic force microscopy (AFM), and (v) scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Demonstrations will be given on most of these facilities. Students will propose a research method for tackling their interested problems by using one or two surface analysis techniques they have learned from this course. Prerequisite: CHE 2501 and CHE 2506. Offered on Registrar’s Warrant in Winter 2013/14. This course represents an undergraduate version of the graduate course CHE 6515. Creating a new course permits simultaneous timetabling, so that undergraduate and graduate students may attend the same lectures. Different assessment tools will be used for the different courses. CIVIL ENGINEERING CE 2973 Civil Engineering Design I 3 ch (2C 2L) [W] Continued development of communication skills used by engineers through the application of the design process to meet a well‐defined set of requirements and constraints.

D) CHANGES TO REGULATIONS AND PROGRAMMES…continued GEOLOGICAL ENGINEERING Program Corrected “169” to “170” credit hours as a result of changes to core courses noted below. Eight credit hours of courses were removed from the core and six credit hours were added to the core. Three credit hours were added to the complementary studies requirement, resulting in a net increase of one credit hour. Common Core Added: CE 2793 Civil Engineering Design I CE 3982 Civil Engineering Design II Courses replace CE3973 and CE4613. The purpose of these two courses is to ensure a continuous progression towards the achievement of multiple graduate attributes, primarily engineering design and communication. CE2973 will build on the first year ENGG design and communications courses, with more emphasis on communications. CE3983 will focus more on design and project management skills to prepare students for the final year design course, GE4973. The two courses will add significantly to the Qualified Engineering Design content of the program, which is a requirement for accreditation. Added: CE 3603 Construction Engineering I Or Elements of CE4613, such as Occupational Health and Safety will migrate into CE3603, and CE4613 will eventually be deleted. Deleted: ENGL 1103 Fundamentals of Clear Writing (or EGLL 1143, or ENGL 1144, or CE3973 Fall Semester) Writing will be covered in CE 2973 and CE 3983. GE program adds 3ch of Complementary Studies Electives. CE2973 will incorporate material from CE 3973 Technical Communications, which is being phased out. Deleted: GGE 3342 Imaging and Mapping I (or alternate with permission from the Director of GE) Timetabling prevents using this as a core course – it will be added as a technical elective for all options. The overall effect of these changes is a reduction in the Common Core of 2 credit hours. 3 credit hours of Complementary Studies Electives has been added to make up the difference.

Corrected numbering of sections Complementary Studies Electives Changed “6 ch” to “9 ch” Technical electives Deleted course: CE 5113 Soil Mechanics II To reflect changes by Civil Engineering Change from: *GE 5153 Environmental Geotechnics Change to: GE 5153 Environmental Geotechnics Removed from the list of technical electives, i.e. removed the asterisk. GE5153 is low in Qualified Engineering Design. The effect of removing this course from the list of technical electives marked with an asterisk will be to require students to take at least one elective with a significant Qualified Engineering Design component. This change will increase the amount of Qualified Engineering Design on the “shortest path” through the program, which is a requirement for accreditation. Deleted: CE 5603 Construction Equipment and Methods To reflect changes by Civil Engineering Added as a TE: GGE 3342 Remote Sensing Changed course title to reflect changes by Geodesy and Geomatics

Entrance Program for the BScSwE
Applicants who do not meet the current admission requirements for the BScSwE program but who offer an admission average of 70% may, at the discretion of the Faculty of Computer Science and the Faculty of engineering, be considered for admission to the Bachelor of Science in Software Engineering Entrance Program. This program enables accepted students to attend UNB for one year to demonstrate their aptitude and interest in Engineering through registration in a series of standard first year Software Engineering courses. Admission to the Entrance Program will be granted only to the extent that capacity allows. Students admitted to the Entrance Program will be individually counselled to select a reduced course load consisting of a maximum of 32 credit hours for the first year of study. Students must achieve a grade point average of at least 2.0 for the year to be successful in the Entrance Program, regardless of the total number of credit hours completed in the year. Students successfully completing the Entrance Program will be admitted to the Bachelor of Science in Software Engineering degree program. Students who are not successful will normally not be permitted to continue in any degree program offered by the Faculty of Computer Science or the Faculty of Engineering.
