Admission

Refer to 3.1 Admissions.

Accelerated Masters Program

Students entering their third year are encouraged to consider the possibility of continuing their education, by enrolling in a Masters degree program after completion of their BSc. By taking two or three courses (graduate or undergraduate) during their undergraduate program, which would be additional to their undergraduate degree program requirements, students will position themselves to be able to complete their Masters degree in 12 to 16 months after completion of their BSc. Students considering this possibility must consult with the Associate Head, Undergraduate Studies or the Department Head and should review the Faculty of Graduate Studies admission requirements.

Notes:

1. All technical elective courses have similar workloads even though the hours in the timetable are variable. One 500-level or higher course from either the Faculty of Science or the Schulich School of Engineering may be approved by the Department Head as a Group B Technical Elective. Optional undergraduate courses and all graduate courses are offered, in any calendar year, at the discretion of the department.

2. Students with a GPA higher than 3.00 at the end of third year may take one 600-level or high course from the Department of Civil Engineering. Approval by the Department Head as a Group B Technical Elective is required.
