Computational Science and Engineering (MEng)

Computational Science and Engineering at McMaster University is a multi-disciplinary field connecting engineering, science, business, mathematics, and computer science to develop tools for real-world discovery and understanding. Advances in computing power and computational methodology allow researchers to use computational simulation, modelling, and optimization to pursue investigations beyond the reach of theoretical analysis and physical experimentation alone. Research areas include computational physical sciences, computational optimization, design and control, and computational biosciences. The Master of Engineering (MEng) is a project-based program, completed on a full-time basis over a nominal length of 16 months, with typical entry in September. Applicants are required to hold an Honours Bachelor's degree (BEng, BSc, or equivalent). The program combines coursework with a project component, applying computational methods to real-world engineering problems. The credential awarded is a Master of Engineering in Computational Science and Engineering.
