Program details
Overview
This second-cycle graduate program in construction engineering totals 45 credits and is offered in two tracks. The Master of Applied Science (M.A.Sc.) track is thesis-based, comprising two mandatory workshops, one mandatory 3-credit activity, three or four optional activities worth at least 12 credits, and a 30-credit thesis. The Master of Engineering (M.Eng.) track is coursework-based, built around either a 15-credit application project or a 6-credit technical project, and is delivered in French only. Courses run during days, evenings, and some intensive sessions, with full-time or part-time study available. The program covers designing and managing construction projects, including project management, research and innovation in construction methods, design processes, maintenance and rehabilitation of infrastructure, and management of building and civil projects, with attention to geotechnical services, hydraulic infrastructure, and building information modelling (BIM). Admission requires a bachelor's degree in civil engineering, construction engineering, or a related field with a minimum GPA of 3.0 out of 4.3, though relevant work experience may substitute; English-proficient candidates admitted conditionally must complete French-language coursework to graduate. The program suits recent engineering graduates seeking specialization and working professionals pursuing advancement, with career paths including project manager, design engineer, consultant, and field supervisor roles.
Requirements
Minimum GPA:3.00 / 4.33
Admission Requirements: ÉTS's Master's in Construction Engineering offers a project profile (M.Ing.) and a research profile (M.Sc.A.), both requiring a bachelor's (or equivalent) in civil engineering, construction engineering, or a related field, with a cumulative average of at least 3.0/4.3; candidates between 2.8 and 3.0 may still be admitted after file review. The M.Ing. is taught in French, and candidates must demonstrate sufficient French knowledge per ÉTS's graduate-studies language policy. The M.Sc.A. is offered in French and English; candidates may instead be admitted on sufficient English proficiency (an anglophone university degree or an English-language test), but must complete a 3-credit university French course outside the program. No minimum standardized test scores (TOEFL, IELTS, TFI) are published for either language route. M.Sc.A. applicants must identify a thesis subject and secure a research supervisor's acceptance before the end of their first semester.
Application Details
Application Deadline:Domestic (Canadian/Quebec) applicants to ETS must apply by August 1 for the Fall (Automne) trimester, December 1 for Winter (Hiver), and April 1 for Summer (Ete) entry -- fixed annual deadlines that ETS republishes each year without tying them to a specific admission year. International applicants face earlier cutoffs: March 1 for Fall entry (May 15 for doctoral applicants), July 1 for Winter entry (September 15 for doctoral), and December 1 for Summer entry (January 15 for doctoral). ETS does not describe admission as rolling; late international applications for doctoral or thesis-based master's programs may still be considered with a research supervisor's recommendation, subject to immigration processing timelines. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
