In addition to Faculty of Graduate Studies requirements and the course requirements described below, students should consult their “home” department in the Schulich School of Engineering for any additional program or course requirement(s).
Master of Engineering (course-based route) in Chemical and Petroleum Engineering and Civil Engineering, with a specialization in Environmental Engineering
All Master of Engineering (course-based) students in the Environmental Engineering specialization will be required to complete 30 units as follows:
a) 12 units of Core Engineering Courses:
b) 18 units of Environmental Engineering Specialization Courses from the list below. Any variations in required courses will be with the approval of the Department.
Courses attempted but failed (with a grade of “C+” or lower) must be successfully repeated with a grade of at least a “B-“ in each course. Any course deficiency must be cleared at the next available opportunity. If a student is unable to register for a course or withdraws from a course for valid reasons, the student may substitute a similar course from the courses approved for the graduate thesis-based program with the approval of the Department.
Students with non-engineering undergraduate degrees may be required to take additional prerequisite courses at the undergraduate level.
Master of Engineering (Thesis-based Route)
A minimum of 12 units. Environmental Engineering 603 or 605 is normally required, together with at least one of Environmental Engineering 621, 623, 625, 627 or 635, and at least one other Environmental Engineering course.
Students with non-engineering undergraduate degrees may be required to take additional prerequisite courses at the undergraduate level.
Master of Science
A minimum of 12 units. Environmental Engineering 603 or 605 is normally required, together with at least one of Environmental Engineering 621, 623, 625, 627 or 635, and at least one other Environmental Engineering course.
Students with non-engineering undergraduate degrees may be required to take additional prerequisite courses at the undergraduate level.
Doctor of Philosophy
For applicants with Bachelor of Science and/or Master of Science degrees in Environmental Engineering:
A minimum of 6 units. One of Environmental Engineering 621, 623, 625, 627 or 635 is normally required.
For applicants with Bachelor of Science and Master of Science degrees in Engineering, but not in Environmental Engineering:
A minimum of 9 units. Environmental Engineering 603 or 605 is normally required, together with at least one of Environmental Engineering 621, 623, 625, 627 or 635.
For applicants with a bachelor's degree in Engineering, but without a completed master's degree:
A minimum of 18 units. Environmental Engineering 603 and 605 are normally required, together with at least one of Environmental Engineering 621, 623, 625, 627 or 635, and at least one other Environmental Engineering course.
Students with non-engineering undergraduate degrees may be required to take additional prerequisite courses at the undergraduate level.
