Program details

Overview

This professional master's program in computer engineering at Polytechnique Montréal deepens technological and scientific knowledge in areas such as computer architecture and embedded and distributed systems, software engineering and quality, multimedia and data visualization, networking, and cybersecurity. Rather than a research thesis, the program is built around graduate-level coursework combined with a project or an industrial internship, with internship placements co-supervised by a professional at the host organization and a faculty member. Courses are taught on campus at Polytechnique Montréal in Montreal, Quebec, with some offered online. The program suits engineering graduates who want to deepen professional expertise and gain specialized technical knowledge in computer engineering without committing to a thesis-based research degree, and who are looking to move directly into advanced technical or engineering roles in industry.

Requirements

Minimum GPA: 2.75 / 4.0
Admission Requirements: The Computer Engineering (M.Ing., professional master's) programme page defers entirely to Polytechnique Montréal's institution-wide graduate admission conditions for its academic and language requirements. 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. Its language requirement mirrors the Baccalauréat: a recognised French-language test is required unless exempt (Québec DEC, a Canadian secondary diploma or degree earned in French, or a recognised francophone education system) — 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); no English test applies, since this professional master's is taught in French. Results must be submitted with the rest of the file — a conditional offer pending the test is not possible.
