Overview
The Master of Applied Science (MASc) at the School of Engineering Science is a research program in which primary emphasis is on the thesis, rather than course work, is more exploratory than the Master of Engineering (MEng) program, and covers a greater range of study.
Students in MASc program take courses and complete a thesis to fulfill the program requirements towards the degree.
- Students are expected to complete this program in 6 terms
- Students are encouraged to complete the courses sooner to explore research topics ideas
- ENSC 898 MASc Thesis course is graded on satisfactory/unsatisfactory, students will receive the credits and a grade only when they defend their thesis

- must have a Bachelor's degree or the equivalent in electrical engineering, computer engineering, engineering science or a related area
- must identify a faculty member willing to act as a supervisor.
Information regarding finding a supervisor can be found here. You can also look for a supervisor base on a specific research field.
Academic Requirements Within The Graduate General Regulations
All graduate students must satisfy the academic requirements that are specified in the (residence, course work, academic progress, supervision, research competence requirement, completion time, and degree completion), as well as the specific requirements for the program in which they are enrolled, as shown above.
Funding
Individual faculty members support students as research funding, paid from research grants. Intending applicants may contact potential supervisors to ascertain the possibility of such support. The research funding for MASc lasts for 2 years.
There is additional limited amount of funding through teaching assistantship (TA) positions, scholarships, and graduate fellowships (GF). However, these are competition-based and are not guaranteed.
Admitted students' funding promises/package will be indicated on the admission letter. The funding usually provided through research funding only, or in a combination of research funding, TA and GF.
