Engineering Science Graduates
Programs
The School of Engineering Science offers two distinct Master's degrees, Master of Engineering (MEng), or Master of Applied Science (MASc) and a Doctor of Philosophy (PhD).
In addition, for current undergraduate students in the School of Engineering Science, we offer an accelerated master's BASc-MASc program.
Program Length: Students are expected to complete the program requirements within six terms.
This program consists of course work and a thesis for a minimum of 30 units. The courses will normally be selected in consultation with the supervisor. ENSC 820 may not be used towards the MASc course requirements.
Students must complete:

MASc & PhD Students
In MASc program and PhD program, a supervisory committee must be established.
Students should appoint their supervisory committee no later than their second term.
M.Eng Students
Supervisory Committee is not required for MEng students. The Associate Chair of the Graduate Program Committee is the default program advisor of all MEng students and will be the approver for MEng students' requests.
ENSC 891/892 is an elective course. Students interested in learning a specific engineering area that the School does not offered as a course should approach ENSC faculty members with matching interests. Availability of the courses may depend on faculty member's interests and schedule, as well as student's prior academic performance. Students who find a faculty member willing to be their Directed Studies supervisor should register for the course ENSC 891/892-3 Directed Studies I/II.
