Honours Electrical Engineering (138 credits)

Offered by: Electrical & Computer Engr     Degree: Bachelor of Engineering

Program Requirements

Program credit weight: 138-139 credits

Program credit weight for Quebec CEGEP students: 109-110 credits

Entry into the Electrical Engineering Honours Program

The Honours program is a limited enrolment program and entry is highly competitive. There is no direct entry to the Honours program in the first year. Students may enter the Honours program in the following ways:

- Students from CEGEP will be admitted, on the basis of their grades, at the start of the third term.

- Students from outside Quebec will be admitted, on the basis of their grades, at the start of the fifth term.

To remain in the Honours program and to be awarded the Honours degree, a student must have completed at least 14 credits in each term since entering Electrical and Computer Engineering, except for the final two terms of their degree, and maintained a CGPA of at least 3.30 since entering Electrical and Computer Engineering. In either of their final two full terms (i.e., Fall and Winter, or Winter and Fall) students may drop below 14 credits, provided the combined load for the two terms is at least 16 credits. For more information, please contact the Departmental office at 514-398-3943.

Required Year 0 (Freshman) Courses (29 credits)

Note: Students in the Honours Electrical Engineering program complete the Year 0 (Freshman) courses before entering the Honours program, as explained above.

Generally, students admitted to Engineering from Quebec CEGEPs are granted transfer credit for these Year 0 (Freshman) courses and enter a 109- to 110-credit program.

For information on transfer credit for French Baccalaureate, International Baccalaureate exams, Advanced Placement exams, Advanced Levels, and Science Placement Exams, see and select your term of admission.
