Master of Engineering Civil Engineering in Canada at UOttawa Canada

Program Overview for Master of Engineering Civil Engineering in Canada:

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

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

Main Areas of Research

• Construction engineering and management
• Environmental engineering
• Geotechnical engineering
• Structural engineering

The eligibility for Master of Engineering 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 to be 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 in 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.

Other Documents required:

• 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)

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