MA/MS in Electrical Engineering is a master's degree in Electrical Engineering programme offered by École de Technologie Supérieure in Montréal, Canada. The programme runs for 2 years. Tuition is CAD 7,000 per total for local students.
This second-cycle graduate program in electrical engineering totals 45 credits and is offered in two tracks. The Master of Engineering (M.Eng.) project track combines 30 or 39 credits of coursework with 6 or 15 credits for a project, and is delivered in French only. The Master of Applied Science (M.A.Sc.) research track comprises two mandatory zero-credit workshops, one mandatory 3-credit activity, three or four optional activities worth at least 12 credits, and a 30-credit thesis, and is offered in English and French. Courses run during days, evenings, and some intensive sessions, with full-time or part-time study available. Subject areas include artificial intelligence, power electronics, industrial control, microelectronics and micro/nano-systems, and imaging and digital vision. Admission requires a bachelor's degree in electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, software engineering, information technology engineering, or a related field with a minimum GPA of 3.0 out of 4.3. The M.Eng. track suits candidates seeking an applied, project-based credential, while the M.A.Sc. track suits those pursuing research; career paths cited include R&D director, embedded systems architect, network engineer, and telecommunications manager.
Requirements
Minimum GPA:3.00 / 4.33
Admission Requirements: ÉTS's Master's in Electrical Engineering offers a project profile (M.Ing.) and a thesis profile (M.Sc.A.), both requiring a bachelor's (or equivalent) in electrical, mechanical, automated-production, manufacturing or industrial engineering, or a related field, with a cumulative average of at least 3.0/4.3 (2.8-3.0 admitted after file review), or alternatively sufficient relevant knowledge, training and experience. Both profiles require candidates to demonstrate sufficient French under ÉTS's graduate-studies language policy; the M.Sc.A. alternatively accepts sufficient English (an anglophone university degree or a language test), in which case a 3-credit French course outside the program is mandatory, and the thesis route requires a professor's written acceptance as supervisor before admission. No minimum test scores are published for either language route; ÉTS notes that limited English reading ability will create difficulties given the volume of English-language manuals and publications. Insufficient preparation may require remedial or prerequisite coursework.
Application Details
Start Date:Fall, Winter and Summer
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.
