Master of Engineering (MEng)

Within the department of Mechanical Engineering at 新加坡六合彩开奖直播, candidate can apply to a degree of Master of Engineering (MEng) in:

  • Mechanical Engineering
  • Materials Engineering

The Master of Engineering (MEng)聽is a courses-based degree that requires at least seven courses, completion of the departmental gradate seminar requirements and a project.聽聽The MEng is a professionally-oriented terminal degree (which does not lead to a PhD).

An MEng project need not involve the discovery or creation of new knowledge, as is the case in a MASc or PhD.聽聽An MEng project must show the student鈥檚 ability to carry through to completion an engineering project of a credible level of difficulty that draws on the knowledge and experience gained through advanced undergraduate and graduate mechanical and material engineering course work.聽聽Therefore, the MEng project (and by extension the MEng degree) has no to little research work.

Note: Financial support is not available for MEng students.

Meeting the minimum admission requirements does not guarantee admission to any of the graduate programs in the Department of Mechanical Engineering.

In order to be considered for admission by the Faculty of Graduate Studies, an applicant must first be selected by a potential supervisor (faculty member) in the department.聽聽Each faculty member in the department is given the opportunity to review the files of applicants interested in this faculty member鈥檚 research or expertise area.聽聽If the faculty member has research position openings and/or projects and/or funding available, they might opt to select an applicant to potentially work under her or his supervision (or co-supervision).聽聽Once selected, all the applicants must be confirmed by the Faculty of Graduate Studies and the Registrar鈥檚 office before acceptance is granted.聽

In view of this, it is strongly suggested that potential graduate applicants (MEng, MASc and PhD) contact one or more potential supervisors (faculty members), specifically those in areas of similar interest, both expertise and research, well聽before submitting an application聽to begin the conversation, and see if those potential supervisors have the projects, funding, availability and the interest in being a potential supervisor.聽

Program requirements

The MEng degree requires 7 courses, of which two may be a senior undergraduate course.

All courses required to meet the degree requirements are considered essential courses.  Essential courses can include any required undergraduate or prerequisite courses.  Any courses taken in excess of the requirements are subject to approval by the supervisor.  These courses will appear on the student鈥檚 transcript as regular courses. 

All MEng degree candidates must pass all graduate level courses and approved undergraduate courses with a grade of at least B-.  Graduate students are allowed to repeat only one course during their programme.  Graduate students are not eligible to write supplementary examinations.  Transfer credits from other university will be considered on a case by case basis.

All MEng candidates must pass an oral examination of their projects after it has been submitted in satisfactory form.

In addition to meeting the grade requirements, failure to maintain an acceptable academic standing will result in a student being removed from the programme.  Failure to achieve the minimum mark as noted above shall be considered ground for dismissal.

Seminar requirement

The purpose of the graduate seminar is to provide graduate students with exposure to a variety of research projects and activities in order to enrich their academic experience.  The seminar also provides the department members with an opportunity to familiarize themselves with all the graduate students within the department and learn about each student鈥檚 research activities.  Finally, the seminar provides student with an opportunity to develop skills in presentation and discussion of research topics in a public forum.  The seminar is run as a one-day research conference every April.

MEng candidates are required to complete at least one seminar presentation during the duration of the residency period, while attending every year while registered in the program.

Length of program

This degree normally takes from 12 to 18 months to complete.
