Graduate Programs

Mechatronics Design combines the fields of mechanical and electrical engineering in the study of integrated modelling, analysis, design and manufacture of electromechanical and mechatronic systems. These principles can be applied in the following industries: transportation; manufacturing and production engineering; biomedical and healthcare technologies; energy; aviation and aerospace; automated office and household technologies; and computer systems.

• Eligibility: Students must have a Bachelor of Applied Science or equivalent, as well as some prior education in mechatronics design, to be eligible for the Mechatronics Design MEng program.
• Co-op: MEng in Mechatronics Design can participate in Co-op after completing their program requirements (all 30 credits). Applications to Co-op must be done in August/September of the student’s start year.

The Master of Engineering in Naval Architecture & Marine Engineering (MEng NAME) involves 8 months of intensive coursework followed by a 4-month internship or project. Students in this program take a specialized set of courses that draw material from Mechanical, Civil, and Materials Engineering, and that focus specifically on the design, construction, maintenance and operation of waterborne vehicles. This interdisciplinary, industry-focused program offers students an innovative education that will enable them to design and construct ships and other structures in the marine environment, and therefore prepare them for immediate and stimulating work in a vital and growing industry.

• Eligibility: Students must have a Bachelor of Applied Science or equivalent to be eligible for the MEng NAME program.
• Co-op: The MEng in Naval Architecture and Marine Engineering program involves 4 month internship as part of the degree, and students are required to apply to the Co-op program. Applications to Co-op must be done in August/September of the student’s start year.

The Masters of Engineering in Mechanical Engineering is aimed at students interested in pursuing an accelerated technical degree in an area not covered by our other MEng programs.  The normal time for completion is 12 months, including a capstone project.  Many of the MEng projects will be more translational in nature and may be combined with opportunities for internship or co-op with a partnering company or startup.  This program is intended for academically strong students with well-articulated educational objectives.

• Co-op: Students in the MEng in Mechanical Engineering program may participate in the Co-op program if they choose. They may complete a 4-8 month work term within their degree, and must return to complete their program.  Applications to Co-op must be done in August/September of the student’s start year.

The Master of Engineering Leadership in Naval Architecture and Marine Engineering (MEL NAME) is intended for engineers who are three to five years or more into their careers. This program combines the engineering and physics of ship design with broad business and leadership training. Students leave the program with the ability to manage complex shipbuilding design and procurement programs, and the qualifications to work in the field of ship project management.

• Eligibility: Students must have a Bachelor of Applied Science or equivalent, as well as 3 or more years of professional experience, to be eligible for the MEL NAME program

The Master of Engineering Leadership in Clean Energy Engineering (MEL CEEN) is designed for engineers and environmental science graduates who want to make their sustainable vision a reality and advance their careers in the field of clean energy. The program offers leadership courses on project management, business and communication, while deepening students’ knowledge of sustainable energy systems, energy distribution networks, energy efficiency and energy policy.

• Eligibility: Students must have a Bachelor of Applied Science or equivalent, as well as 3 or more years of professional experience, to be eligible for the MEL CEEN program.
