Program details
Overview
The Mechanical Engineering graduate program at the University of Manitoba offers two master's-level credentials with an expected duration of two or more years, both delivered on the Fort Garry campus with admission in Fall, Winter, and Summer terms. The Master of Science is research-focused, requiring a minimum of 12 credit hours of coursework, a thesis, an oral presentation, and an oral examination. The Master of Engineering is oriented toward practice, requiring 24 credit hours of coursework, including at least nine credit hours at the 700 or 7000 level, with six of those credit hours assigned to an approved project and report. The Master of Science suits students aiming for research or academic careers, while the Master of Engineering is designed for practicing engineers, including those trained internationally, who want to continue their studies on a broad basis rather than pursue original research.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: The Department requires a four-year bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, waivable in exceptional cases based on professional experience. Applicants for both the MSc and MEng must name a confirmed advisor holding a PhD who is a member of the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies before applying. No specific GPA or course prerequisites are listed on the programme page; academic average and English proficiency follow the University's general graduate standard: a four-year bachelor's degree with a minimum B average (3.0) in the last 60 credit hours, and IELTS Academic 6.5 overall, TOEFL iBT 86 overall with a minimum of 20 per section, PTE Academic 61, Cambridge C1 Advanced/C2 Proficiency 180, or Duolingo English Test 120 overall with a minimum 100 per skill, valid two years. Meeting these requirements does not guarantee admission.
Application Details
Start Date:Fall, Winter and Summer
Application Deadline:Domestic applicants (Canadian citizens and permanent residents) apply directly to the University of Manitoba. As of this September 2026 fetch, the Direct Entry deadlines page shows only the Fall 2026 cycle in full - University 1 and the Diploma in Agriculture at May 1, 2026 domestic / March 1, 2026 international, other Direct Entry programs at March 1, 2026 - a cycle that has already closed, alongside minor Winter 2027 (Dec 1, 2026) and Summer 2027 (Apr 1, 2027) intake deadlines. No Fall 2027 Direct Entry deadline has been published yet, so specific 2027 dates cannot be stated for the university's main intake. The Bachelor of Music and Bachelor of Jazz Studies deadline (January 15, applying equally to domestic and international applicants) is likewise confirmed only for the 2026-27 cycle, also closed, with no 2027-28 bulletin posted. These are described as fixed deadlines rather than rolling admission, and the university opens each new cycle's applications on October 1. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
