Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering

PLEASE NOTE: This program is not currently accepting applications

Intended for domestic students, the Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering (MEng Thesis) program is often taken on a part-time basis. Students learn from highly motivated and internationally-recognized faculty members as they help conduct cutting-edge research, preparing them to be future industrial and academic leaders. The program usually takes four to six years of part-time study beyond a bachelor’s degree and requires a minimum of five to six half courses. No more than one course can be at the undergraduate level (500 level), subject to approval by the department head or designate. A thesis/project related to original engineering analysis and/or design must be presented. The program doesn’t provide financial support. International students are admitted into the MSc program.
