My name is Kammi Madsen and I’m the Engineering Advisor and Accreditation Coordinator for the Engineering and Applied Science Department at Thompson Rivers University. My role in the engineering department is advising and assisting Software Engineering students as they navigate through their academic career at TRU. Admission to the Bachelor of Engineering in Software Engineering at TRU is now open for Fall 2020 and seats are limited. Software engineering is one of the most in-demand and fastest growing professions. At TRU, software engineering students experience hands-on learning in our state-of-the-art labs, along with small class sizes giving students the advantage of personal attention from their instructors – no TA’s. In the Engineering and Applied Science Department, we want to ensure students at different academic levels have an opportunity to explore the Software Engineering industry, which is one reason we have an admission grade requirement of only 67% or higher. This is just one of the many advantages of applying to the Bachelor of Engineering in Software Engineering at TRU. If students want to take advantage of the lower academic requirements they must apply right away because we are processing applications and making admission decisions as they are received. March 01, 2020 is the deadline to apply, however, space permitting applications may be accepted after this date, but for students to take advantage of the lower academic requirements they must apply NOW. Attached is detailed information on the Software Engineering program for your review. I would appreciate you sharing this information with Grade 12 students at your school, so they are aware of this great opportunity to pursue engineering as a profession. APPLY NOW Admission Requirements: High School Admission Requirements 1. BC Grade 12 (or equivalent). 2. BC English 12/English 12 First Peoples with a minimum of 67% (or equivalent). 3. Pre-Calculus 12 with a minimum of 67% (or equivalent). 4. Physics 12 with a minimum of 67% (or equivalent). 5. Chemistry 12 with a minimum of 67% (or equivalent). (You will still be considered for admission if you do not fulfill the Chemistry 12 requirements, however you may have to complete an extra Chemistry course) If you or any students need any further information, please feel free to contact me I am more than happy to provide it. Thanks, Kammi Kammi Madsen B.S., M.Sc. Engineering Advisor and Accreditation Coordinator Faculty of Science, Engineering and Applied Science P: 778-471-8698 | OM 2802 Thompson Rivers University 805 TRU Way Kamloops, BC V2C 0C8 I’m happy to share that our new TRU Start Application is now live on our website.
