Duoc UC Speciality : Civil & Structural Engineering
programme: Building Services Engineering

The program is interesting and you can learn a lot if you really focus on it, but it has one major problem: Duoc offers a four-year program, while in the working world, many companies tend to require five-year Engineering degrees. A five-year degree is also required to sign off on structural calculations, so the program offered by Duoc falls behind in this regard, which puts graduates at a disadvantage.

This is something that is never mentioned during the program. It’s something I only realized after starting to work in my field, and it made me feel a little misled.
