Minimum Admission Requirements
To be considered for conditional admission to the MEng program and the CDP, applicants must meet the following admission requirements:
-
Be admitted to the HBSc program and Global Environmental Change specialist program.
-
Meet the admission requirements of the School of Graduate Studies and the MEng program.
-
Be enrolled full-time and in good standing in the HBSc program:
-
Have a B+ average (cumulative grade point average [CGPA] of 3.3) or higher in Year 2.
-
Carry a full course load of 5.0 full-course equivalents (FCEs) each year (i.e., complete a minimum of 5.0 FCEs over the three academic sessions [Fall, Winter, Summer]).
To be given full, unconditional admission to the MEng program in Chemical Engineering and Applied Chemistry, applicants must meet the following admission requirements:
-
Maintain a B+ average (CGPA of 3.3) or higher in Year 3 and Year 4 of their HBSc program.
-
Complete two prescribed undergraduate engineering half courses (1.0 FCE) as part of the HBSc degree requirements.
-
Students who choose the option of taking up to 1.0 FCE in graduate courses in Year 4 must achieve a minimum grade of B–. These courses can be counted towards the completion of the HBSc degree requirements and the MEng program and degree requirements.
-
Be conferred with the HBSc degree.
Academic Path to Completion
Every CDP involves a specific combination of approved degree programs. The CDP requirements build on those of the two separate degree programs. Each CDP has a unique pattern of academic activity year by year.

-
HBSc degree requirements.
-
By the end of Year 4, fulfill both the undergraduate program requirements and the undergraduate degree requirements.
-
Between Years 4 and 5, eligible students may begin the MEng program in the Summer session.
|
- Students are expected to carry a course load of 5.0 full-course equivalents (FCEs) over the three academic sessions (Fall, Winter, Summer) of each year.
-
In Year 3, qualified students may apply to the CDP and may be offered conditional admission to the MEng program.
-
In Year 4, students who receive a conditional offer of admission to the CDP and MEng program must complete 1.0 FCE in prescribed undergraduate engineering courses offered by the Faculty of Applied Science and Engineering. These courses can be counted towards the completion of the HBSc degree requirements.
-
In Year 4, students who receive a conditional offer of admission to the CDP and MEng program may complete up to 1.0 FCE in graduate courses with the permission of the Chemical Engineering and Applied Chemistry Department; students are graded as graduate students and must achieve a minimum grade of B–. These courses can be counted towards the completion of the HBSc degree requirements and the MEng program and degree requirements.
