Why choose this program?

The Master of Applied Science (MASc) degree is generally more appropriate for students interested in pursuing a career in research and development. 

The program of study consists of 4 courses, a seminar, and a research thesis. The thesis results must be summarized and defended in an oral presentation. 

Careers

Civil Engineering graduates can be found in responsible engineering and administrative positions in industry and government. Some become consultants in planning, design or construction of engineering projects, or in specialized fields where the application of research to the solution of practical problems is important.
