What is the course load and cadence of the MEM program?

The program is flexible and part-time, with each term comprising two courses (six credits). Alternatively, you may choose to take only one course per term. Terms are 15 weeks in length and include 12 weeks of instruction, one week for reading and/or midterms, and a two-week period for final exams.

When does the program start?

uOttawa has made this program flexible for working professionals and as such, offers three start dates/intakes in the calendar year: Fall, Winter and Spring-Summer.

What language are courses taught in?

The program will provide an appropriately supportive environment for francophone students to develop professional competence in technical English at their own pace. Students have the right, as stipulated in the University's bilingualism regulations (Academic Regulations I-2), to complete all their work, including their project, in the official language of their choice (French or English). There are fully bilingual professors and advisors who can support students in French. If market research and / or student demand indicates there are sufficient numbers, the program is prepared to provide courses in French. At the moment, the on-campus and online version of the program only provides courses taught in English. Applicants whose first language is neither French nor English must provide proof of proficiency in the language of instruction.
