What's the 4+1 program?
If you're entering the final year of your undergrad, you can complete an accelerated MEng in geomatics engineering in one additional year of school.

My experience with the MEng at UCalgary was excellent. I was taught how to succeed, both academically and in industry, and the projects developed both my creative and critical-thinking skills.
