Program details

Overview

UVic's Master of Engineering in Aerospace Systems Engineering is a three-term, course-based degree for mid-career professionals and recent graduates entering the aerospace sector. Its emphasis falls on autonomous aerial vehicles, and the curriculum deliberately blends conventional aerospace engineering with newer strands: hybrid-electric propulsion, multifunctional composite materials, machine learning and artificial intelligence applied to autonomous flight operations. Hands-on capstone projects have interdisciplinary teams design, build and test innovative aerial vehicles, with collaboration opportunities through the Centre for Aerospace Research and student-led aerospace teams. Study is on-campus and full-time with no thesis requirement and an optional co-op term. Sustainability and ethical considerations in aerospace design are treated as explicit learning outcomes.

Requirements

Admission Requirements: This University of Victoria Master of Engineering program requires an undergraduate degree in engineering or applied science; applicants holding a different degree may still be considered if they have relevant industrial experience. The program page states no minimum grade point average and no IELTS, TOEFL or other English-language test score. Applicants must submit two assessment reports from professional or academic contacts, official transcripts and degree confirmation, a one-page letter of intent explaining career goals and strengths, and a résumé. Domestic applicants must apply by June 30 and international applicants by April 30 for the relevant intake. The program is self-funded, so students must secure their own funding before enrolling.

Application Details

Application Deadline: Domestic applicants apply through EducationPlannerBC, which opens for 2027-entry applications on 1 October 2026: most degree programmes see September 2027 entry close 31 January 2027, January 2027 entry close 30 September 2026, and Summer 2027 entry close 31 March 2027, though Teacher Education post-degree programmes close 2 January 2027, Indigenous Education post-degree admits on an ongoing basis, and Engineering's Summer entry (high-school graduates only) closes 31 December 2026. International applicants use the same portal and face identical dates, since UVic publishes no separate international deadline. UVic treats these as fixed annual dates rather than rolling admission, though it warns any programme can close early without notice. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
