Program details
Overview
This is McGill's Bachelor of Engineering in Bioengineering, offered through the Faculty of Engineering. The program spans materials science and tissue engineering, biomedical devices and instrumentation, molecular and cellular engineering, and environmental engineering, building on foundational study in mathematics, physics, and chemistry alongside biology. It is described as a multidisciplinary program combining engineering and biological principles. The page does not specify co-op placements, a capstone project, named streams within the major, or a particular delivery format, and campus details beyond the Montreal context are not given. Admission is through the Faculty of Engineering, with detailed requirements linked from, but not listed on, this page. The program is aimed at students who are curious about the complexity of living organisms and want to advance current technology by developing what the page calls life-enhancing and life-saving technologies. It suits applicants drawn to a multidisciplinary environment where engineering methods are applied to biological problems, rather than students seeking a purely mechanical, electrical, or civil engineering track.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: This McGill program page carries no admission criteria of its own; it directs applicants to the university's general admission requirements, and to enter you apply to the Faculty of Engineering. Under McGill's institution-wide rules, Quebec CEGEP graduates are admitted directly from their DEC into the program, following the required Science/Engineering-stream prerequisite courses; Canadian applicants from other provinces are assessed on their senior secondary record, for example Ontario applicants on the average of their 'Top 6' 4U/4M courses, with at least four of the six and all prerequisites at the 4U level; international applicants are assessed by their own school system (US high school, IB, British-pattern, or other) and are normally admitted with an extra Freshman (U0) year. Admission is by academic record only, and meeting the published minimums does not guarantee a place. English proficiency is required unless exempt: IELTS Academic 6.5 with no band below 6.0, TOEFL iBT 90, Duolingo English Test 125, or PTE Academic 65.
