2019-2020 Graduate Academic Calendar [ARCHIVED CALENDAR]

Mechanical Engineering, MEng - Project option


Degree requirements for the Master of Engineering (MEng) in Mechanical Engineering are listed below. For general program information, admission requirements, graduate faculty lists and/or details on part-time options, see Mechanical Engineering .

Degree requirements


The objective of the MEng program in Mechanical Engineering is to provide the opportunity for engineers in industry to upgrade and expand their skills, including the development of research skills. Graduates of the program will be able to apply what they have learned in a variety of applications in industry, government and academia. Depending on which option the student selects, the objective of the MEng program can be achieved through either a combination of course work and a project or solely course work. MEng students have exposure to research through projects included in most of the graduate courses.

For the project option, students must complete seven courses worth a total of 21 credits and a project worth nine credits (ENGR 5002G - MEng/MEngM Project ). Students who select the Design field will be required to take at least one of the Design courses numbered as 527XG.

Undergraduate courses


In addition to the required graduate courses, students may take only one senior year undergraduate engineering course (i.e., with prefix ENGR 4xxxU) in lieu of a graduate-level course, provided they have not already taken a similar course during their undergraduate degree and the course is approved by both the student’s supervisor and the graduate program director.

Courses outside of the program


Courses in other graduate programs at the university may be taken provided that students have not taken similar courses during their undergraduate or master’s degrees and the courses are approved by the graduate program director. At least half of a student’s courses must be within their program in the Faculty of Engineering and Applied Science. Students who wish to take courses outside of their program must gain approval from the graduate program director. Students who are uncertain about the academic background needed for a graduate course should consult the course instructor before registering for the course.

Course listing


In the list of engineering graduate courses below, courses related to the Energy and Thermofluids Engineering field are numbered as ENGR 51xxG. Courses related to the Mechatronics and Manufacturing Engineering field are numbered as ENGR 5221G  through ENGR 5263G . Courses related to the Design field are numbered as ENGR 527XG.

PhD students may select from the courses listed for Energy and Thermofluids Engineering, Mechatronics and Manufacturing Engineering, and the core automotive courses  (ENGR 53xxG).

Courses numbered ENGR 50xxG are common to all fields. Note that ENGR 6000-level courses are restricted to PhD students.
