Technical elective courses may be offered in terms other than those indicated in the program tables.

A student who has previously met a technical elective requirement in a given semester or wishes to defer it, may request an exemption or deferral by applying to the Head of the appropriate Department. A minimum grade of 60% is required for credit to be given towards a student’s engineering program for any technical elective taken outside the normal Academic Terms as shown in the tables.

A minimum grade of 60% is required for credit to be given towards a student's engineering program for any course beyond Engineering One that is taken outside the normal Academic Terms as shown in the tables.

Transfer credit cannot be awarded for project or design courses in Academic Terms 7 or 8 of the Engineering program.

Students registered in Academic Term 7 of any Engineering major are eligible to apply for admission to a Master of Engineering Fast-Track Option (M.Eng.). The purpose of the Option is to encourage students interested in pursuing graduate studies to begin their graduate program while still registered as an undergraduate student. While enrolled in the Option, a student may complete some of the M.Eng. Degree requirements and potentially be able to graduate earlier from the M.Eng. Program. For further details and the regulations regarding the option, refer to the School of Graduate Studies, Regulations Governing the Degree of Master of Engineering.
