FAQ’s

The TIM courses are designed to be attended in-person in an informal, face-to-face university setting.

However, the TIM program is fully equipped to deliver the courses online to students all over the world. This means that students will be participating in the same way, no matter where you are in the world. Due to the pandemic and further study permit delays, it is common for students to being their studies from outside Canada and join us “in person” in their second or third term (if permitted).  Many of our instructors hold online office hours specifically for students that are attending remotely.

Students can join the program starting in the Fall or Winter term. Apply Today!

The TIM program is a full-time program designed to be completed in 2 years (6 consecutive terms including Fall, Winter and Summer).  The fastest it can be completed is in 4 years since students are allowed to take a maximum of 1.5 credits per term (the minimum is 0.5 credit). Students need 5.5 credits to complete the full program.

The cost of the program and up to date information can be found with the Tuition Fee Estimator linked here under Master of Applied Science, Master of Engineering, Master of Entrepreneurship, and Master of Business Analytics degree. Tuition fees for the Summer term are calculated separately.

Currently, for international students, fees are approximately $13 000 per term, and students take 4-6 terms to compete their studies, therefore it is approximately $52 000-$78 000. Please keep in mind, tuition fees vary slightly from term to term, so we cannot provide an exact cost.

We accept students with degrees related to Science, Engineering, Technology, and Business. Students with academic background outside of these fields may be considered if you have significant technical work experience. We do not require a GRE test. The TIM Program does not include a formal co-op component. The admission requirements are the same for all of the TIM pathways.

The English proficiency requirements can be found below on the Faculty of Graduate Studies website.
