The Department offers 4 Graduate programs in engineering physics (the following links are mainly in French).
STUDENT GUIDE FOR GRADUATE STUDIES
Unlike undergraduate studies, graduate studies offer you the exciting opportunity to have a strong impact on exceptional socio-economic challenges through state-of-the-art research and discovery.
To give you a feeling of community in our department and to introduce you to the vast world of research in engineering physics, we have created a series of seminars. There you will discover new research areas at the cutting-edge of science and technology and meet and interact with world-recognized researchers. In the doctoral program, the comprehensive exam will give you an opportunity to consolidate the basic principles of engineering physics within an organized foundation. This will help you to move forward smoothly and efficiently in research projects.
This document details the supporting tools we offer for preparation for the comprehensive exam. It also provides information on the procedures for submitting and presenting a dissertation for the Masters degree.
Looking for a research project?
Some professors are currently seeking students to take part in projects in engineering physics.
DESS: Specialized higher-education diploma (Diplôme d'études supérieures spécialisées)
This program is aimed at students holding a Bachelors degree in sciences who want to complete their studies with graduate courses. The program consists of 30 lectures credits, with a maximum of 9 undergraduate credits.
M.Ing. : Course-oriented Master degree
This Masters degree program is for students who want to develop their professional skills. It focuses on the acquisition of specialized skills in one particular area of Engineering. This program requires 45 credits with between 30 and 39 credits associated with lectures including a maximum of 9 undergraduate course credits and 6 to 15 credits for a research project or an internship.
M.Sc.A.: Research-oriented Master degree
This Masters degree program is for students who want to develop their scientific and research skills. Consisting of 45 credits, the program includes 15 course credits including a maximum of 9 undergraduate course credits. The program also includes 30 credits for a research project. Most graduate students choose a Masters of Applied Sciences over a Masters of Engineering.
Ph.D.: Philosophiae Doctor degree
This program aims at developing a high level of knowledge, intellectual ability, scientific curiosity and creativity in order to succeed in a research or a teaching career. It consists of 90 credits, including 10 to 30 graduate course credits and the remainder for a research project.
The department also offers DESS, M. Ing., M. Sc. A. programs in energy engineering as well a Ph.D. program in nuclear engineering.
