Chemical Engineering - MASc

The Master of Applied Science (MASc) postgraduate program requires the successful completion of four one-term course credits and a research thesis. No undergraduate credits may be taken towards the degree. At least two of the required four courses must be taken at Ryerson. The curriculum is structured to facilitate completion of course requirements in one calendar year of full-time study (12 months) or three academic semesters, however, thesis research may require an additional two to three terms. This program is designed to provide opportunities for involvement in water/wastewater and food technologies, or polymer and process engineering programs of graduate study and research. Your supervisor must approve the graduate course selection. This is confirmed through a Program of Study agreement between you and your supervisor, with the approval of the director. You are expected to commence working on your research thesis upon initial registration in the program. The Supervisory Committee must approve the thesis research plan/proposal (which you will present in writing). An oral presentation of the research thesis, and the research results, will be arranged in a seminar format. An Examination Committee will assess and grade your research thesis.
