Program details

Overview

The Individualized Master's Degree (Maîtrise sur mesure) at ÉTS Montréal is a customized, research-based second-cycle program for students whose area of specialization is not covered by the university's existing master's programs. It leads to a Master of Science (M.Sc.) or Master of Arts (M.A.), depending on the discipline, and totals 45 credits: two mandatory zero-credit workshops, one required 3-credit research-methodology course, three or four elective graduate courses (minimum 12 credits), and a 30-credit thesis. Admission requires prior approval from a research supervisor willing to direct the project before the application is submitted. Instruction is offered in French and English; students must demonstrate sufficient French proficiency under ÉTS's language policy, or, if admitted on English-language credentials, complete an additional 3-credit French course. The program suits candidates pursuing original graduate research in a specialized or interdisciplinary field for which no standard ÉTS master's program exists, and who have already secured supervisory support for their proposed research.

Requirements

Minimum GPA: 3.00 / 4.3
