Program details

Overview

Mechanical Engineering is a Bachelor of Science in Engineering offered through the College of Engineering at the University of Saskatchewan, requiring 150 credit units over four years, beginning with a common first-year engineering core of 42 credit units. Years two through four each carry 36 credit units, combining required mechanical engineering and mathematics courses with electives in science, humanities, and complementary studies. Coursework progresses from foundational general engineering courses through mechanical engineering courses covering design, thermodynamics, and systems analysis, with technical electives available that touch on chemical engineering and engineering physics topics as well. The program balances technical depth in mechanical engineering with broader education requirements in humanities and social science. It suits students pursuing careers in mechanical engineering and related fields who want a well-rounded engineering education combining core technical training with complementary coursework outside the discipline. The program is delivered on campus through the College of Engineering, following the same first-year structure shared with the university's other engineering programs before students move into mechanical-engineering-specific study.

Requirements

Minimum GPA: 80.00 / %
Admission Requirements: Mechanical Engineering is entered through the College of Engineering's common first year: all students admitted to Engineering complete a shared first-year curriculum before declaring Mechanical Engineering and competing for a place in the upper-year program. For direct entry from a Saskatchewan high school the college requires Chemistry 30, Physics 30 and Pre-Calculus 30, each with a minimum grade of 70%, plus a regular-admission average of 80% (90% qualifies for early admission), calculated from the required Grade 12 subjects. English proficiency is USask's general undergraduate Language Proficiency Regulations (admissions.usask.ca/requirements/english-language-proficiency.php): IELTS Academic 6.5/6.0, TOEFL iBT 86/19, PTE Academic 63/59, Duolingo 120/100, CAEL 70/60. Requirements differ for applicants from other provinces or countries, and the college designates seats for verified Indigenous applicants. This is a Fall (September) intake only.

Application Details

Start Date: September
Application Deadline: The University of Saskatchewan does not publish fixed general application deadlines for its direct-entry undergraduate colleges (Agriculture and Bioresources, Arts and Science, Education, Edwards School of Business, Engineering, Kinesiology, Dental Hygiene, Dental Therapy): admission requirements and deadlines for the 2027-28 cycle become available only once applications open on 25 September 2026, and the site gives no separate international closing date. Non-direct professional programs set their own dates instead: for September 2027 entry, the College of Law's JD opens 15 October 2026 with rolling review to a 1 February 2027 documents deadline and is not currently accepting international applicants; the College of Medicine's MD applications close 1 October 2026 for domestic (Canadian citizen/PR) applicants only; and the Nutrition program's single deadline is 15 March 2027 for both domestic and international applicants, with no late applications considered. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
