Advanced Credit

The applicant must make Advanced Credit requests as part of the admission process. Credit will not be given for course work taken as part of another completed degree/diploma or for courses taken to bring the grade point average to a required level for admission or for grades below "B".

Flexible Grade Option (CG Grade)

Students admitted to the Schulich School of Engineering will not be allowed to request the Flexible Grade Option (CG Grade) for any course that is applicable to their degree; or apply any course awarded a grade of CG towards their graduation requirements.

Students may choose the CG grade for a course taken extra to load.

The use of the CG grade will affect students' eligibility for internal awards.

Credit for Undergraduate Courses

Where appropriate, MSc students may take 500-level undergraduate courses for credit with approval of the supervisor and the Department (a maximum of 6 units for MSc). Undergraduate courses will not count toward the PhD program requirements.

Time Limit

Expected completion time is 20 months of full-time study for the Master of Science. The maximum completion time is four years.

Other Information

Students enrolled in any of the engineering graduate programs may opt, in addition to their normal required course load, to undertake an international project outside Canada. The duration of the project should be between four and six months.

Graduate students have the opportunity to participate in the Transformative Talent Internship option.
