Program details
Overview
This is McGill's Bachelor of Engineering in Mechanical Engineering, offered through the Faculty of Engineering. The program centres on the conception, design, implementation, and operation of mechanical systems, with stated applications in aerospace, energy, manufacturing, machinery, and transportation. Three named specializations are offered: Design, focused on product and process design for extreme environments; Aeronautics, oriented toward the aerospace industry; and Mechatronics, which integrates mechanical and electronic systems. Foundational coursework draws on chemistry, physics, materials science, and mechanics, and students can take minors or related joint majors alongside the core program. The page does not describe co-op placements, internship structure, capstone design projects, professional accreditation status, or a specific delivery format; it notes only that applicants apply through the Faculty of Engineering and must meet its admission requirements, without characterizing a particular student profile. Instruction is based on McGill's Montreal campus. It suits students seeking a broad mechanical engineering foundation with the option to specialize later in design, aeronautics, or mechatronics, rather than students looking for a single fixed specialization from the outset.
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.
Application Details
Application Deadline:McGill sets deadlines by educational background rather than citizenship. For entry in September 2027, Quebec CEGEP and Quebec high-school applicants must apply by 1 March 2027 (documents due 15 April 2027); applicants from Ontario and other Canadian provinces must apply by 1 February 2027 (documents due 4 May 2027). International applicants, including those on a U.S. high-school or IB curriculum, must apply by 15 January 2027 (documents due 1 March 2027). The application portal opens 1 October 2026. Deadlines are firm and late applications are not accepted; admission is not rolling, and decisions are released competitively from November through July depending on school system. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
