Master of Engineering (MEng)

The Master of Engineering (MEng) program is a perfect mix of technical, leadership and business skills that gives you an advantage for a leading-edge engineering career. Apply by June 15 for a September 2012 start.

Your first choice when you want to stand out

Whether you are a recent engineering graduate or a seasoned professional, the Master of Engineering (MEng) program is the perfect mix of technical, leadership and business skills to take your career to the next level. The MEng program is right for you if you are already working and want to upgrade your skills, of if you want to take engineering management courses.

Primarily comprised of lecture and laboratory work, the MEng program may also include a project. Best of all, you can customize the MEng to fit your goals through certificates in areas such as entrepreneurship and leadership, public policy, globalization, energy and healthcare engineering.

The MEng can be undertaken on either a full- or part-time basis. The program can usually be completed in one year of full-time study, but must be completed within six calendar years of registration. Working professionals tend to pursue the program on a part-time basis. We also offer some weekend and online course options.

Why an MEng is your smart choice:

• Sets you apart in a competitive job market
• Enhances your English language skills in an engineering environment
• Certificate options to suit your professional goals
• Can be completed in just one year of full-time study
• Increases your career opportunities

You can pursue your MEng through one of the following six departments in the Faculty of Applied Science & Engineering at the University of Toronto:

• Aerospace Studies
• Chemical Engineering and Applied Chemistry
• Civil Engineering
• Electrical and Computer Engineering
• Materials Science and Engineering
• Mechanical and Industrial Engineering

General Admission Requirements

To qualify for admission to the MEng program, you must have an undergraduate degree (usually four years) in engineering with at least a mid-B to B+ average in your final two years.

To learn about the admissions and application process, including the English facility requirements and the Graduate International Foundation Program (G-IFP), please consult our Graduate Admissions page.

MEng Certificate Options

Along with the traditional MEng degree, U of T Engineering offers several opportunities for academic focus in Engineering and Public Policy (EPP), Globalization, Entrepreneurship Leadership Innovation Technology in Engineering (ELITE) and Robotics and Mechatronics (IRM).

In order to focus on one of these areas of study within the MEng program, you must complete four courses in either area in addition to your MEng courses. Upon completion of your MEng degree, you will also receive a certificate.

Please note: Students can also choose to take EPP and Globalization courses on their own (i.e., without pursuing the MEng degree) to receive a certificate.
