This Diploma of Graduate Studies (DESS) in Software Engineering is a 30-credit second-cycle program at ÉTS Montréal for engineers and professionals seeking advanced knowledge in software engineering and skills to identify technology needs and facilitate technology transfer in industry. Full-time completion takes four sessions (five maximum); part-time completion takes eight sessions (ten maximum). Courses are offered during the day, evening, and in some intensive formats, with both full-time and part-time study available. Admission cycles run in Fall, Winter, and Summer. Instruction is in French, and applicants whose preparation is judged insufficient may be required to take prerequisite courses. The program suits professionals with a background in computer science, management information systems, or electrical engineering who want applied graduate training in software engineering without committing to a full master's degree, and it functions as a standalone second-cycle credential rather than a route into a specific master's program.
Requirements
Minimum GPA:3.00 / 4.3
Admission Requirements: Admission requires a bachelor's degree with a strong component or option in computer science, management information systems, or electrical engineering (computer option), with a minimum cumulative average of 3.0/4.3. Alternatively, candidates may qualify through equivalent knowledge, appropriate training, and relevant professional experience; applicants with insufficient preparation may be required to take prerequisite courses. Sufficient knowledge of French is required, and applicants who cannot read English easily may encounter difficulties given course materials.
