Chemical Engineering MASc

Admission Requirements

  • Bachelor's/baccalaureate degree (or equivalent) in engineering or the sciences with high standing (e.g., with honours, or the Concordia equivalent of a GPA of at least 3.00 on a scale of 4.30).

Additional Admission Requirements

The Department Graduate Studies Committee will determine the acceptability of an applicant for admission to the program and may require the applicant to do specific remedial coursework, including the bridge course CHME 401 Principles of Chemical Engineering, and/or other course(s) to meet the program requirements.

Degree Requirements

Fully-qualified candidates are required to complete a minimum of 45 credits.

Please see the Engineering Courses page for course descriptions.

Chemical Engineering MASc (45 credits)

4

credits:

CHME 6981 Chemical Engineering Research Protocols and Safety (4.00)

12

credits total with a minimum of 4 credits chosen from the Chemical Engineering MASc Core Courses list and a maximum of 8 credits chosen from the Chemical Engineering MASc Electives List with permission of the Graduate Program Director.
