Program details

Overview

Process Systems Engineering at the University of Regina offers graduate study through the Faculty of Engineering and Applied Science, with four master's options: a thesis-based Master of Applied Science, a Master of Applied Science co-op stream, a project-based Master of Engineering, and a Master of Engineering co-op stream, each generally completed within roughly two to under three years depending on the co-op component. The field focuses on the design, implementation, control, and optimization of engineering processes that convert raw materials into usable end products, including energy, with attention to challenges such as greenhouse gas emissions, renewable energy, and petroleum refining. Specializations available in the department include intelligent systems, robotics, advanced CO2 capture, petroleum refinery processes, and catalyst technology, supported by laboratory resources such as carbon capture pilot plants, hydrogen facilities, gas chromatographs, mass spectrometers, and electron microscopes. The program is delivered on campus and offers teaching assistantships and access to scholarships such as the Edgar A. Wahn Scholarship. It suits engineering graduates seeking advanced, research- or project-based training in process systems, with the co-op streams adding industry work terms. Graduates pursue roles such as process engineer, control systems engineer, and engineering manager with employers including SaskPower and SaskEnergy.

Requirements

Minimum GPA: 70.00 / %
Admission Requirements: The program page for Process Systems Engineering (MSc/PhD) states only the program's general resources, linking to the Faculty of Graduate Studies and Research (FGSR) Application Guide and Program Requirements rather than stating engineering-specific criteria. The general FGSR standard therefore applies: a four-year bachelor's degree (or recognized equivalent) in a relevant engineering or science discipline with a graduating average of at least 70% for the Master's route, and sufficient background to undertake graduate engineering work. International applicants must show English proficiency of CAEL 70, IELTS Academic 6.5 overall with no band below 6.0, PTE Academic 59, or Duolingo English Test 125 overall.

Application Details

Application Deadline: Domestic applicants to the University of Regina apply for Fall 2027 entry with a recommended early deadline of 15 March 2027 for best course selection and a final new-applicant deadline of 15 August 2027; Winter 2027-28 entry has an early deadline of 1 November 2026 and a final deadline of 15 December 2026, and Spring/Summer 2027 entry closes 15 April 2027. International (study-permit) applicants share the same final deadlines as domestic students for each term but have no separate early deadline. Numerous named programs, including Nursing, Social Work, Bachelor of Indigenous Social Work, Indigenous Fine Arts and Indigenous Education, carry their own earlier deadlines instead of the general dates. Admission is not described as rolling; late non-competitive applications are simply carried to the next term the program accepts. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
