at The University of British Columbia

PROGRAM STRUCTURE
 

The M.Eng. is an Electrical and Computer Engineering degree; there is no sub-classification on the certificate. The MEng program is not a research degree, and is course-based with a supervised project option. The following groupings of core courses are recommended for students with specific interests. While there is no guarantee that each graduate course will be offered each year, an effort will be made to offer the courses in the lists below:
