Detailed Information of Master of Applied Science Civil Engineering in Canada at University of Ottawa

Program Overview for Master of Applied Science Civil Engineering in Canada:

The Ottawa Carlton School of Civil Engineering (OCICE) was established in 1984, combining the strengths and research resources of the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at Carleton University and the Department of Civil Engineering at the University of Ottawa.

The postgraduate degrees offered by the Institute can grant degrees of Master of Applied Sciences (MASc), Master of Engineering (MEng), and Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) in civil engineering. Research facilities are shared between the two campuses. Students can use the professors, courses, and facilities of the two universities, but must register with the "home university" of the thesis supervisor.

Main Areas of Research

  • Construction engineering and management
  • Environmental engineering
  • Geotechnical engineering
  • Structural engineering
  • Sustainable Materials and Construction
  • Water resources engineering

Other Programs Offered Within the Same Discipline or in a Related Area

  • Master of Applied Science in Civil Engineering Specialization in Science, Society, and Policy (MASc)
  • Master of Applied Science in Environmental Engineering (MASc)
  • Master of Applied Science in Environmental Engineering Specialization in Environmental Sustainability (MASc)
  • Master of Engineering in Civil Engineering (MEng)
  • Master of Engineering in Environmental Engineering (MEng)
  • Doctorate in Philosophy in Civil Engineering (Ph.D.)
  • Doctorate in Philosophy in Environmental Engineering (Ph.D.)

The eligibility for Master of Applied Science Civil Engineering in Canada for both domestic and international student is:

  • Hold a bachelor’s degree with specialization or a major in civil engineering, or in the sub-disciplines normally considered part of civil engineering with a minimum average of B (70%).
  • Applicants holding an honors bachelor’s (or major) degree in an engineering discipline other than civil engineering or science may be considered for admission to a qualifying program with the following conditions:
  • Graduates from honors engineering or science programs with a mathematics content equivalent to that of the civil engineering undergraduate program will have to take a minimum of four undergraduate civil engineering courses in their area of graduate specialty.
  • Graduates from other science programs (i.e., those without the mathematical content covered in a civil engineering undergraduate program) will have to take all the core engineering undergraduate mathematics courses in addition to four qualifying undergraduate civil engineering courses in their area of specialty.
  • Demonstrate strong academic performance in previous studies as shown by official transcripts, research reports, abstracts, or any other documents demonstrating research skills.
  • Identify at least one professor who is willing to supervise your research and thesis.
    • We recommend that you contact potential thesis supervisors as soon as possible.
    • To enroll, you need to have been accepted by a thesis supervisor.
    • The supervisor’s name is required at the time of application.
    • The choice of research supervisor will determine the primary campus location of the student. It will also determine which university awards the degree

Other Documents Required:

  • Preference Form
  • Resume
  • Graduates from other programs have to take all undergraduate mathematics + must have command of English and a minimum of four relevant undergraduate courses Please note that non required admission documents will not be consulted, conserved or returned to the student. These documents will be destroyed according to our administrative procedures.
  • Recommendation Letter (2).

N.B: Most universities have specific international admission requirements based on different education systems.

These are the test eligibilities for the Master of Applied Science Civil Engineering to qualify.
