Entry requirements

Programme-specific requirements: Applicants seeking admission to a graduate program in Aerospace Engineering as regular students must have been awarded a baccalaureate degree. Admission to the Aerospace Engineering graduate programs normally requires a bachelor’s degree in engineering (not necessarily in aerospace engineering), a minimum grade point average (GPA) of 3.0/4.0 or 70% on all graduate and undergraduate works. An undergraduate degree in mathematics, chemistry or physics combined with a strong interest in engineering topics may be suitable preparation when certain required undergraduate courses are taken. Exceptions to these requirements may be made if other persuasive evidence indicating the student’s potential of success is available. Graduate School requirements apply (not programme-specific): see the Graduate School admission requirements.

Tuition is charged per credit, so the total depends on the modules you register for each year. Current fees are listed in the official fee schedule.

Graduate applicants apply online through The Graduate School application system; deadlines and supplemental materials are set by each programme page. Minimum undergraduate GPA 2.75, minimum graduate GPA 3.0, and 2.5 for graduate certificate applicants (programmes may require more).
