Eligibility Criteria
Admission Requirements
Applicants to the M.A.Sc program should hold a bachelor’s degree in engineering or equivalent with high standing.
Consideration will also be given to candidates with a degree in a cognate area with high standing. Such students may be required to enroll in an extended program. In particular, applicants with a bachelor’s degree in architecture will
be considered for the M.A.Sc in Building Engineering. The Faculty Graduate Studies Committee will determine the acceptability of an applicant for admission to the program and may require an applicant to take specified
undergraduate courses in order to qualify for acceptance. Qualified applicants requiring prerequisite courses may be required to take such courses in addition to their regular graduate program. Applicants with deficiencies in their
undergraduate preparation may be required to take a qualifying program. An ability to write simple programs in a standard computer language will be assumed. Students lacking this skill will be required to register for a course
prescribed by the Graduate Program Director. This course will be taken in addition to regular degree requirements. The Faculty reserves the right to require applicants to write tests of competence in English as a second language,
and to take any English instruction deemed necessary as a result of such tests.
