Industrial Engineering (MASc)
Program overview
The Master of Applied Science in Industrial Engineering is a thesis-based program designed to enhance specific areas of knowledge gained at the undergraduate level and to introduce students to the research methods of industrial engineering. You will have access to state-of-the-art laboratories and established research centres in a department that promotes interdisciplinary research and development in industrial control, computer-aided vehicle engineering, composites and computational fluid dynamics. Our department is at the forefront of research and graduate training in Canada. The program combines practical course work with a research thesis that allows you to focus on a topic of your choice. Students interested in the course-work master's program should refer to the MEng Program instead.

Tuition & funding
Tuition and fees
Tuition and fees of the program may depend on your student status, among other key factors. Estimate these costs based on the most common situations.
Awards and funding
Funding packages are generally available for students in thesis-based programs. They come in the form of awards, teaching and research assistantships are offered at the time of admission to most students to allow them to focus on their research and studies. Research and thesis-based students are automatically considered for all entrance graduate awards when they apply to Concordia, provided they meet eligibility criteria. No separate application is required.
The Quebec and Canadian governments offer a number of competitive graduate scholarships. We encourage you to apply for these awards at the same time you are preparing your application.
