The Master of Engineering (MEng) program is course based and intended to provide continuing and advanced education for recent graduates and civil engineers in professional practice. The program can be taken on a full-time, extended full-time (EFT), EFT plus co-op, or part-time basis.
MEng Program (Full-Time and Part-Time Options)
Minimum Admission Requirements
-
Applicants are admitted under the General Regulations of the School of Graduate Studies. Applicants must also satisfy the Department of Civil and Mineral Engineering's additional admission requirements stated below.

A completed undergraduate degree equivalent to a four-year University of Toronto program with a minimum final-year grade point average (GPA) of a mid-B (3.0 out of 4.0 or 75%).
-
Applicants whose primary language is not English and who graduated from a university where the language of instruction and examination was not English must demonstrate proficiency in English. See General Regulations section 4.3 for requirements.
Completion Requirements
-
Coursework. Students must complete 5.0 full-course equivalents (FCEs) (10 half courses). At least six courses must be technical, four of which must be offered by the Department of Civil and Mineral Engineering (CIV, MIN, or CME course codes).
-
With approval, one or two CivMin courses may be replaced by an MEng project: CIV1001H or CIV1002Y.
-
Technical courses include:
-
Courses offered by departments within the Faculty of Applied Science and Engineering (AER, BME, CHE, ECE, MIE, MSE course codes).
-
Courses from a list (found on the department's website) of APS courses deemed technical.
-
-
Four may be non-technical (but must still be relevant to the program) and may include APS and TEP courses, or courses from other departments in other Faculties.
-
-
Part-time students are limited to four half courses per year and two half courses per session. Students normally complete the requirements in nine sessions.
-
Students have the option of completing an emphasis in Advanced Water Technologies; Building Science; Concrete; Construction Management; Data Analytics and Machine Learning; Engineering and Globalization; Entrepreneurship, Leadership, Innovation and Technology in Engineering (ELITE); Environmental Engineering; Forensic Engineering; Geomechanics; Structural Engineering; Sustainable Energy; Sustainable Urban Systems; or Transportation Engineering and Planning as part of their degree program. Please see details in the Civil Engineering Emphases section.
Program Length: 3 sessions full-time (typical registration sequence: FWS); 9 sessions part-time
