Masters in Mechanical Engineering in Canada

The University of Manitoba's graduate program in mechanical engineering is well-recognized across Canada and internationally. We are proud to deliver a world-class graduate experience leading to Master of Engineering (MEng) and Master of Science (MSc) degrees.

The thesis-based Master of Applied Science (M.A.Sc) in Mechanical Engineering is a traditional research-based degree. The program normally takes two years of full-time study, and includes a total of thirty credits, research under the supervision of a faculty member and a thesis. The Master of Applied Science is the recommended course of study for students who may be interested in eventually pursuing a Ph.D.

The Department of Mechanical Engineering offers graduate courses and provides research facilities for well qualified students of recognized universities who wish to pursue advanced studies leading to the MEng, MSc, and PhD degrees in Mechanical Engineering. In addition, the Department offers a program in Engineering Management to graduate engineers of any discipline, leading to the MEng, MSc, and PhD degrees in Engineering Management.

The general fields of study include solid mechanics, dynamics, thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, heat transfer, combustion, biomedical engineering, manufacturing engineering, and engineering management.

The Master of Applied Science in Mechanical Engineering is a thesis-based program whose purpose is to advance the design of technological systems. Students will broaden a specific area of scientific knowledge, conducting research on a topic of their choice in mechanical or industrial engineering. Our state-of-the-art laboratories and research centres for industrial control, computer-aided vehicle engineering, composites and computational fluid dynamics attract students from all over the world. With an international reputation and world-class research programs, our department is at the forefront of research and graduate training in mechanical and industrial engineering in Canada. Students interested in the course-work masters program should refer to the MEng Programs instead.

Our professionally based program features advanced study in thermofluids, manufacturing, materials, solid mechanics and industrial engineering. This allows for interdisciplinary research projects that benefit society at large and positions students to pursue their interests.
