Master of Science in Chemical Engineering (Thesis Based)

Program Overview

A Master of Science (MSc) in Chemical Engineering at Lakehead University satisfies the demand for highly qualified personnel that are prepared to address global challenges within the field of Chemical Engineering. This program offers students the opportunity for advanced study and the development of independent research abilities in the discipline. Students in the MSc program have the opportunity to work collaboratively with world-class researchers, research facilities and research institutes, all within a collegial learning environment. Graduate students will benefit from participating in industrially driven projects, a collegial environment, and close supervisor-student interactions. The program offers a thesis option that fosters the development of independent research abilities of students. These objectives in this program are achieved through a combination of course work and research. This option is ideal for students seeking to continue on to doctoral studies as well as students interested in research and development careers within industry.

Thesis-Based

The requirements for the thesis-based MSc program are 5 full-course equivalent (FCE) made up of: 4 half-courses (2 FCEs), a seminar course Engineering 5012 (0.5 FCE) and a thesis Engineering 5901 (2.5 FCEs).

Thesis-based MSc students must take at least three half-courses from the corresponding list of approved courses for the program. One of the four half-courses of the program can be a reading course (Chemical Engineering 5739), a graduate course from another program, or a senior undergraduate course, providing it has not been taken before and providing it is approved by the supervisor and the Graduate Coordinator. The student’s choice of courses must be approved by the graduate supervisor and the Graduate Program Coordinator.

The thesis is expected to critically evaluate and apply current research. Often advances in the state of the art are proposed in the Master's thesis. The student will be guided by a thesis supervisor and a supervisory committee to be established by the end of the first term after enrollment. A research thesis topic should be submitted to the student's thesis supervisor by the end of the second term of studies. When completed the thesis will be examined under university regulations
