  Nova Scotia Technical College - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In the early 1900s, at the request of the province of Nova Scotia, Dr. Frederick Sexton laid the plans for the current system and roles of "Associated Universities" in engineering education in Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island, and New Brunswick.
He also founded the Nova Scotia Technical College (NSTC), where students pursued their senior engineering and graduate years - typically the last 2-3 years of undergraduate engineering, after doing the initial 2 years at one of the associated universities.
The provincial government forced TUNS to amalgamate with Dalhousie University in April 1997 and was called Dalhousie University Polytechnic (DalTech) until 2001.
