This 90-credit PhD (Philosophiae Doctor), troisieme cycle, at UQAT is a multidisciplinary, research-type doctorate developing advanced knowledge, intellectual rigour, scientific curiosity and creativity, with four specialization areas: mining geology, geomechanics, applied geophysics and environmental hydrogeology. Course options are shared with Ecole Polytechnique de Montreal and include geostatistics, tectonophysics, structural geology, rock mechanics, hydrogeology, applied geothermics and underground mining, alongside a research thesis. Admission requires a bachelor's or master's degree in engineering, or an equivalent recognized by Ecole Polytechnique, evidencing appropriate prior training; a university file alone does not guarantee admission, and applicants must secure the support of a professor willing to direct their research. A direct bachelor's-to-doctorate route is available for candidates with a cumulative average of at least 3.4 on a 4.0 scale in their engineering bachelor's studies, with lower averages considered case by case on departmental recommendation. International applicants must meet Ecole Polytechnique's language requirements for their file to be reviewed.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: Admission requires a bachelor's or master's degree in engineering, or a diploma judged equivalent by Ecole Polytechnique, evidencing appropriate prior training; a university file alone does not guarantee admission, and the applicant must obtain the support of a professor willing to direct the research. Candidates with a bachelor's degree in engineering and a cumulative average of at least 3.4 on a 4.0 scale (or Polytechnique-recognized equivalent) may apply for direct admission from the bachelor's to the doctorate; candidates with a lower average may still be admitted with a favourable recommendation from the relevant department. International applicants must meet Ecole Polytechnique's language requirements for their file to be reviewed.
