Program details
Overview
This bachelor's program (B.Ing.) in engineering physics at Polytechnique Montréal combines physics and engineering training to develop high-technology applications from discoveries in fields such as quantum mechanics, thermodynamics, and electromagnetism. Students use engineering design tools and high-precision manufacturing processes, along with mathematical modelling, to turn research ideas into technological products, with applications spanning microelectronics, optical telecommunications, and advanced materials at the nanometre scale. The program prepares graduates for careers in microelectronics, optics, advanced materials, life sciences, energy production including nuclear, photovoltaic, and hydroelectric power, and also finance and strategic consulting. Students complete one to four paid internships of four months or more with industry or research centres. The 120-credit curriculum normally takes four years, extending to five for students who complete Polytechnique's integrated preparatory year. Admission is in Fall and Winter. Instruction is delivered on campus at Polytechnique Montréal in Montreal, Quebec.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: The Engineering Physics (B.Ing.) page states only that admission is in Fall and Winter, linking to the institution's admission-conditions page for the entry requirements, so the general Baccalauréat conditions apply. Language is assessed first: applicants schooled in a system Polytechnique does not recognise as francophone must present a qualifying French test result — DALF C1/C2 or DELF B2 (lifetime validity), or 400 (level B2) in every component of TCF Canada, TCF Québec, TCF tout public, TEF Canada or TEF Québec (2-year validity) — before the file is reviewed; holders of a Québec DEC, a Canadian secondary diploma or degree earned in French, or schooling from a recognised francophone system or the AEFE network are exempt. Québec applicants enter from the collegial system, normally with a DEC in the appropriate pre-university field; applicants schooled outside Québec apply through published equivalence routes by qualification (French baccalauréat, IB, OSSD and other Canadian provinces, US high school, classes préparatoires, prior university study, among others). Anyone who finished secondary school outside Québec with no subsequent post-secondary study first completes Polytechnique's integrated 30-credit preparatory year, extending the degree to five years.
