The PhD in Mechanical Engineering (Doctorat en genie mecanique) at Universite de Sherbrooke is a 90-credit research doctorate leading to the Philosophiae Doctor degree, delivered full-time on the Sherbrooke campus under a regular or industry-partnership study regime. It offers two streams: a Technological Creation stream and a Disciplinary Expertise stream. Students critically identify and contextualize new complex engineering problems to define and carry out a research or technology-development project resulting in a tangible engineering solution. Depending on the stream, students independently lead a research project to make an original scientific or technological contribution, engage critically with advanced knowledge and literature, communicate their work effectively, uphold research ethics and integrity standards, and develop sustainable solutions to complex, multidisciplinary technological challenges. The program culminates in a doctoral thesis and admits at the Fall, Winter and Summer terms.
Requirements
Minimum GPA:3.00 / 4.3
Admission Requirements: Applicants must have completed a master's degree in mechanical engineering or an equivalent (except for direct entry after a bachelor's degree or the accelerated master's-to-doctorate pathway) and must have demonstrated the aptitude required for research or technological development. Candidates must secure the agreement of an eligible faculty supervisor. A cumulative GPA of at least 3.0 on a 4.3 scale (or an equivalent academic record) is required. Holders of a bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering or an equivalent may, under certain conditions, be admitted directly to the doctorate. An accelerated pathway from the master's program is available to students who maintain continuity of their research project and supervisor, have passed the research-methodology or research-proposal course, completed 9 elective credits of the master's program with a GPA of at least 3.0/4.3, and receive a favourable recommendation from their research supervisor.
