Program details
Overview
This research-based master's program in engineering at Université du Québec en Abitibi-Témiscamingue lets students deepen their specialization across one of several concentration areas, including mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, renewable materials, applied sciences, and telecommunications. Instruction emphasizes modern analytical, design, simulation, measurement, and modeling tools relevant to each area, delivered on campus in small cohorts that allow close supervision. The program is structured around a research project or thesis carried out under faculty supervision, drawing on university laboratories and equipment in areas such as mechanisms and automation, electrical machines, computer-aided design and manufacturing, biocomposites and nanocomposites, wind energy, and wireless telecommunications. It suits students who already hold an engineering or related undergraduate degree and want focused, research-oriented graduate training in a specific technical area, whether to build expertise for industry roles or to prepare for further doctoral study. The program is aimed at both Quebec-based and international graduate students seeking advanced technical training with direct faculty mentorship in a research setting.
Requirements
Minimum GPA:3.00 / 4.33
Admission Requirements: Standard entry requires a bachelor's degree in engineering or the equivalent in fundamental or applied sciences, with a cumulative average of at least 3.0/4.3 or equivalent. Applicants may alternatively be admitted on an experience base by holding the requisite knowledge, appropriate training and experience judged pertinent. Before applying, every candidate must have secured a qualified professor's agreement to supervise the master's research. UQAT's own admission page sets no separate language test for this graduate programme; instruction is entirely in French, per the institution's admission requirements.
Application Details
Start Date:September, January and May
Application Deadline:UQAT's admission page states only that online applications open each term - September for Fall, 1 March for Winter and June for Summer - without giving a closing date for any of its bachelor's programmes (Mining Engineering, Electromechanical Engineering, Digital/3D/Video Game Creation, Social Work). No separate international deadline, and no programme-specific deadline for engineering or digital-creation programmes, is published on the general admission, international-student, or engineering-school pages; UQAT directs both domestic and international applicants to contact the registrar or the relevant program office for exact timing. The university does not describe its admission as rolling in these terms, but no fixed closing date for the 2026-2027 cycle appears anywhere checked. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
