Overview

This research-based Master of Science (M.Sc.) programme in agri-food engineering trains graduates in agricultural, environmental, and food-industry engineering. Students specialize in agro-environmental engineering (soil conservation, agricultural pollution control, agricultural mechanization) or food process engineering (food processing design, storage, and transport). The programme combines graduate coursework with an original research project supervised by a faculty member, culminating in a thesis. Candidates must secure a research supervisor before applying. Instruction is delivered mainly in French, with some courses offered in hybrid or distance format; reading comprehension of English is required. The nominal duration is four full-time sessions (two years). Admission is offered for the Fall, Winter, and Summer terms.
