Introduction

The Schulich School of Engineering sponsors a diploma program providing additional special qualifications in designated departments which lead to the Diploma of the Schulich School of Engineering. The designated departments offering the diploma program are: Chemical and Petroleum; Civil; Electrical and Computer; and Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering. This program is intended primarily for professional engineers engaged in practice who are not interested in enrolling in a graduate degree including a thesis, or who are unable to meet the residence requirements of the MSc degree.

Admission

Admission to the diploma program may be granted to holders of an approved degree or its equivalent. Engineers, without a degree, who are registered as Professional Engineers with the Association of Professional Engineers, Geologists and Geophysicists of Alberta, or an equivalent association, may also be eligible for admission to the diploma program.

Requirements

The diploma program consists of 24 units of which at least 12 units must be graduate courses in engineering. Courses which normally fall within an undergraduate program in the same area in which the diploma is sought will not be credited toward the diploma.

Regulations

A student must obtain a grade point average of at least 2.50 in the courses taken for credit toward the diploma. The minimum passing grade in courses taken for credit in the diploma program is "C".

Enquiries about the diploma program should be directed to the department in which the diploma is sought.

Environmental Engineering

The Schulich School of Engineering also sponsors a diploma program providing additional specialization in Environmental Engineering, intended for professional engineers or holders of equivalent approved degrees and leading to the Diploma of the Schulich School of Engineering in Environmental Engineering. The admission criteria, requirements and regulations for the diploma are the same as for the Diploma of the Schulich School of Engineering. Enquiries about the specialization in Environmental Engineering should be directed to the Department of Civil Engineering.
