Program details
Overview
This second-cycle graduate program in healthcare technology engineering totals 45 credits and is offered under two credential options: a Master of Engineering (M.Eng.), delivered in French only, and a Master of Applied Science (M.A.Sc.), offered in both French and English. Courses are scheduled during days, evenings, and some intensive sessions, and can be taken full-time or part-time. The program admits students across three intakes — Fall (August 1 deadline), Winter (December 1 deadline), and Summer (April 1 deadline) — under program codes 3094 and 1560, at the ÉTS Montréal campus. The two-credential structure mirrors ÉTS's other second-cycle engineering offerings, giving candidates a choice between the two engineering master's designations within the same healthcare technology engineering specialization. It suits engineering or applied-science graduates who want to pursue graduate-level study focused on technology applied to the healthcare sector, and who need flexible day, evening, or intensive scheduling to fit around other commitments.
Requirements
Minimum GPA:3.00 / 4.33
Admission Requirements: ÉTS's Master's in Engineering in Healthcare Technology offers a project profile (M.Ing.) and a thesis profile (M.Sc.A.), both open to holders of a bachelor's in engineering, pure sciences, biomedical sciences, medicine, or physical-activity sciences, or an equivalent, with a cumulative average of at least 3.0/4.3 (candidates at 2.8-3.0 admitted after file review) or, alternatively, sufficient relevant knowledge, training and experience. Applicants with insufficient preparation may be required to take prerequisite courses. 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 must be completed before graduation, and the thesis route also requires a professor's written acceptance as supervisor before admission. No minimum test scores are published for either language route; strong English reading ability is recommended given the volume of English-language material.
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.
