Building on our tradition of

sustainability and design, the MEng

program offers opportunities for

advanced training in some of the most

globally important fields of study.

The MEng program is courseworkbased and can be taken as a fulltime or part-time program of study.

The coursework option provides graduates with a fuller understanding of engineering principles and a better grasp of their application to the solution of complex, practical problems.

MEng students have the option to complete 9 courses, or 7 courses and a final project. Both options take approximately 3-5 semesters to complete (with 3 semesters per year). All incoming MEng students are enrolled in the courses study option by default and may seek out potential advisors before or within their first semester to secure a final project.

Improve Living

Over 24,000 students learn at the University of Guelph every year. More than 800 faculty teach here every year. More than 1,800 research projects to improve life in a variety of capacities are currently underway.

Yet what the numbers don’t capture is how we live while we're here and after we leave. Our students, faculty and staff are engaged. They are passionate about being here. We are equally passionate about educating the whole person to shape better citizens of the world.

That has been our focus for over 150 years: life, living, always improving.

We Acknowledge

The University of Guelph resides on the treaty lands and territory of the Mississaugas of the Credit. We recognize that today this gathering place is home to many First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples and acknowledging them reminds us of our collective responsibility to the land where we learn and work.
