The Institute
Director of the Institute, A. Ghani Razaqpur
Associate Director of the Institute, V. Garga
Established in 1984, the Institute combines the research
strengths and resources of the Departments of Civil and
Environmental Engineering at Carleton University and the
Department of Civil Engineering at the University of Ottawa.
Programs leading to a Master of Engineering, a Master of
Applied Science, and Ph.D. degrees are available through the
Institute in a wide range of fields of civil engineering.
Programs in transportation engineering, and in water resources
engineering are centred at Carleton University and the
University of Ottawa, respectively. Programs in environmental,
geotechnical, and structural engineering are available at both
universities. Graduate students may pursue their research on
either university campus, depending upon the choice of program
and supervisor. Registration will be at the university to which
the student's supervisor is affiliated. Requests for admission
may be sent to the Director of the Institute. Graduate studies
in Environmental Engineering are also available through the
Ottawa-Carleton Institute for Environmental Engineering which
offers graduate degrees in Environmental Engineering
(www.ociene.ca).

Master's Degree
Admission Requirements
The normal requirement for admission to a master's program
is a bachelor's degree with at least high honours standing in
civil engineering.
- Graduates from engineering programs other than civil
engineering, or Honours science programs with a mathematics
content equivalent to the civil engineering program will
have to take a minimum of four qualifying undergraduate
civil engineering courses in their area of graduate
specialty.
- Graduates from other science programs will have to take
all the core engineering undergraduate mathematics courses
in addition to the requirements specified in (1)
above.
The undergraduate courses required will be specified in the
Certificate of Admission.
Undergraduate civil engineering courses will not be accepted
towards a graduate degree. Graduate students may still be
required to take undergraduate courses for credit to fulfil the
admission requirements.
No more than one half of the program credit requirements or
that stipulated in the regulations of the university in which
the student is registered, whichever is less, can be
transferred at admission. At least one half of the course work
must be taken at the Institute.
Program Requirements
Study at the master's level can be pursued through either a
thesis leading to a M.A.Sc. or a project and course work option
leading to a M.Eng. At Carleton University, 1.0 credit
typically comprises three hours of lectures or seminars a week
for two terms, or the equivalent. At the University of Ottawa,
1.0 credit is one hour of instruction per week for one
term.
Requirements are stated in terms of Carleton University
credits.
The requirements for the master's degree by thesis (M.A.Sc.)
are:
- Three (3.0) course credits
- Thesis equivalent to three (3.0) course credits
- Participation in the civil engineering seminar
series
- Successful oral defence of the thesis
The requirements for the master's degree by course work
(M.Eng.) are:
- Four and a half (4.5) course credits
- A project equivalent to one and a half (1.5) course
credits
Doctor of Philosophy
Admission Requirements
The normal requirement for admission into the Ph.D. program
is a master's degree with thesis in civil engineering. Students
who have been admitted to a master's program may be permitted
to transfer into the Ph.D. program if they show outstanding
academic performance and demonstrate significant promise for
advanced research.
Program Requirements
At Carleton University, 1.0 credit typically comprises three
hours of lectures or seminars a week for two terms, or the
equivalent. At the University of Ottawa, 1.0 credit is one hour
of instruction per week for one term.
Requirements are stated in terms of Carleton University
credits.
- A minimum of two and a half (2.5) course credits
- Participation in the civil engineering seminar
series
- Successful completion of written and oral comprehensive
examinations in subject areas determined by the student's
advisory committee
- Successful completion of a thesis proposal
examination
- Thesis
- Successful oral defence of the thesis. The examination
board for all theses will include an external examiner,
and, when possible, professors from both departments.
- Subject to approval of his/her advisory committee, a
Ph.D. student may take, or be required to take, courses in
other disciplines.
Students who have been permitted to transfer into the Ph.D.
program from a master's program without having completed the
master's degree will require five (5.0) course credits for the
Ph.D. degree which include transfer of credits from the
incomplete master's program.
Graduate Courses
In all programs, the student may choose graduate courses
from either university with the approval of the adviser or the
advisory committee. Graduate courses are listed below, grouped
by subject area. Course descriptions may be found in the
departmental section of the calendar concerned. All courses are
of one term duration. The codes given in parentheses are those
used by the University of Ottawa. Courses beginning with "CIVE"
and "ENVE" are offered at Carleton University and those
beginning with "CIVJ" and "ENVJ" are offered at the University
of Ottawa. Not all courses listed are necessarily given during
one academic year.
