The Faculty of Engineering at UNB Fredericton has expanded and revitalized its M.Eng. in Environmental Studies. The program offers many attractive features.

• Its flexible, course-based structure can be tailored to your schedule and subject preferences.



• You can fast-track your degree and finish the M.Eng. program in only 16 months.



• The program covers a range of environmental topics, yet lets you focus on specific engineering disciplines.



• Instructors present real-life case studies taken from industry, so you learn to develop solutions to real-life engineering challenges.



• Guest instructors include professionals from environmental engineering firms in Atlantic Canada.



• The co-operative option gives you the possibility of employment for one term with provincial and national companies in the environmental engineering business.

Who Can Apply?

The M.Eng in Environmental Studies program is designed for people with an engineering background. As well, individuals with closely-related education or professional qualifications may be considered.

The program is also ideal for prectising engineers wishing to obtain an M.Eng. Degree on a part-time basis.

• This MEng program is open to B.Sc. degree holders (Some departments may require B.Sc. E.). Potential applicants of this program need to apply to each engineering Graduate Academic Unit (i.e., Chem. Eng., Civil Eng., Elec. Eng., For. Eng., Geology and Geomatics Eng., Mech. Eng.) for admission, following the standard procedures for all graduate students. For detailed information about general application to graduate studies, please browse through the webpage: http://www.unb.ca/gradschl/apply/index.html
• The academic responsibility for each M.Eng. student remains with individual Graduate Academic Unit (GAU). A student in this program normally does not have an academic supervisor.
• Common Courses of 12 credit hours (ch) are mandatory, allowing a broad exposure in environmental studies. Students can choose 4 courses from a list of 6 courses.
• Technical Electives of 18 ch, of which at least 14 ch must be from Engineering Faculty, are selected for an emphasis on engineering specializations. An approved list is available from each Graduate Academic Unit.
• A Project/Report of 6 ch is optional as a Technical Elective for certain GAUs but may be mandatory for other GAUs.
• At present, all courses are delivered at regular schedules (i.e. distance learning is not available), although some Technical Electives may be reading courses up to individual instructors.
• This program does not have its own funding to its students. A student in this program is eligible to apply for teaching assistance and scholarships available to all graduate students on a competition basis. Teaching assistance is assigned by each engineering department. Information about graduate scholarships at UNB is provided in the following webpage: http://www.unb.ca/calendar/graduate/awards/
• The information about tuition fees is provided in the following webpage: http://www.unb.ca/services/financialservices/students/fredfees.htm
