Program details
Overview
This program offers graduate study in Electrical and Computer Engineering leading to a Master of Applied Science, a Master of Engineering, or a PhD. The MASc and PhD are offered full-time only, while the MEng offers full-time or part-time study. The MASc combines advanced coursework with research and design work, the MEng emphasizes design and engineering practice, and the PhD centres on specialized independent research. Research areas span biomedical engineering, communications, computer systems and VLSI, power systems engineering and controls, and signal and multimedia processing, supported by access to more than twenty-five specialized laboratories, including facilities in biomedical robotics and rehabilitation, communications and signal processing, and computer vision and image processing. Admission to the MASc or MEng requires a four-year undergraduate degree with a minimum 3.00/4.33 GPA; the PhD requires a master's degree with a minimum 3.33/4.33 GPA. The program suits engineering graduates seeking research or design-focused advanced study, including those aiming toward academic or research careers.
Requirements
Minimum GPA:3.00 / 4.33
Admission Requirements: Entry requires a four-year undergraduate degree (or equivalent) from an accredited institution, with a minimum GPA of 3.00/4.33 (B) in the final two years of study for both the MASc and MEng routes (the PhD route requires a master's degree in a related engineering or applied science discipline and a 3.33/4.33 (B+) minimum). The MASc and PhD applications need two letters of recommendation; the MEng needs one. All applicants submit a statement of interest, resume and transcripts. English proficiency is required only when the prior degree's language of instruction was not English, at the university's general graduate minimum: TOEFL iBT 93, IELTS Academic 7.0, PTE Academic 63, CAEL 70, or Duolingo 130.
Application Details
Application Deadline:Toronto Metropolitan University sets one guaranteed-consideration date for both domestic and international applicants applying for Fall 2027 entry: complete applications and amendments received by 1 February 2027 receive equal consideration for admission, and TMU says this same date applies to 'all domestic & international applicants.' Non-academic ('Grades-Plus') requirements are generally due around this point too, though the exact date varies by programme. For Winter 2027 (January-start) entry, TMU's program-status page gives domestic applicants a guaranteed-consideration date of 1 December 2026, with most programmes closing applications in mid-December; a limited number of programmes separately accept international applications for winter admission subject to space availability, but TMU publishes no fixed closing date for those international winter applicants. Admission is not rolling: late applications are considered only as space allows after the guaranteed-consideration date. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
