Program details

Overview

This research-based master's program in aerospace engineering at Polytechnique Montréal deepens technological and scientific knowledge in the field and prepares highly specialized engineers for Quebec's aerospace sector. Students choose a research focus from tracks covering aeronautics and propulsion, avionics and control, or aerospace manufacturing, and complete their studies through coursework combined with a thesis built on original research. Before starting, applicants identify and secure a faculty supervisor whose research interests match their own. Teaching is primarily delivered during the day on campus at Polytechnique Montréal in Montreal, Quebec, with some evening options. The program suits engineering graduates, particularly those with backgrounds in aerospace, electrical, or mechanical engineering, who want to pursue supervised research training in aerospace engineering and are considering further study or a research-oriented career in the aerospace industry.

Requirements

Minimum GPA: 2.75 / 4.0
Admission Requirements: The Aerospace Engineering (M.Sc.A., research master's) programme page defers to Polytechnique Montréal's institution-wide graduate admission conditions, and, as with all research-based programmes, requires a professor willing to supervise the applicant's research before the file is considered. The programme itself states a preference for an engineering degree in aerospace, electrical or mechanical engineering. Polytechnique's institution-wide graduate admission conditions set a minimum admission average, for applicants from the Canadian university system holding a bachelor's degree in engineering, science or a related discipline, of 2.75/4.0 (equivalently 3.0/4.3, B, 70%, or 7/10); different minimum averages are published for other countries of prior study. Candidates choose to sit the required language test in English or French: French exemptions and thresholds are the same as the Baccalauréat's (DALF C1/C2, DELF B2, or 400/level B2 in TCF/TEF Canada or Québec); the English route accepts TOEFL iBT 75, TOEIC 605, IELTS Academic 6.0, PTE Academic 50, or Duolingo English Test 115, each valid 2 years, with the corresponding secondary/university systems and OIQ-language-compliant candidates exempt from either test.
