General Engineering Program
The General Engineering Program (GEP) is offered in addition to the Faculty of Engineering’s majors (Chemical, Civil, Computer, Electrical, Materials, Mechanical, Mining, and Software Engineering). The GEP permits students with strong mathematics, physics and chemistry results in high school to pursue a common first year curriculum without declaring a particular major program at the time of application. The GEP spans one academic year only (Year 0), following which students enter into an engineering major program.
For more information about the General Engineering Program, see www.mcgill.ca/engineering/degrees/general.
