Æ»¹ûÒùÔº

The School of Computer Science offers an extensive range of courses for Engineering students interested in computers. Engineering students may obtain a Computer Science Minor as part of their B.Eng., B.S.E., or B.Sc.(Arch.) degree by completing 24 credits of courses, passed with a grade of C or better.

Students interested in this Minor should contact:

• Liette Chin
• Undergraduate Program Coordinator
• School of Computer Science
• Lorne Trottier Building, Room 2070

Environmental studies focus on the interactions between humans and their natural and technological environments. Environmental problems are complex, and their satisfactory solutions require the synthesis of social, scientific, and institutional knowledge.

The Minor in Environment is offered and administered by the Æ»¹ûÒùÔº School of Environment (MSE).

Since the program comprises a total of 18 credits for the Minor, additional credits beyond those needed for the B.Eng. degree are required. Students wishing to complete the Minor should prepare a program and have it approved by both their regular Engineering departmental adviser and the MSE Adviser. For program details, see the Æ»¹ûÒùÔº School of Environment > Undergraduate > Minor in Environment.

Minor Adviser: Students interested in this Minor should contact Kathy Roulet, MSE Program Adviser (email: kathy.roulet [at] mcgill.ca; telephone: 514-398-4306).

Prerequisite: None

Minors for Non-Management Students: Students considering one of these Minor programs should consult a Faculty Student Adviser in the Æ»¹ûÒùÔº Engineering Student Centre (Student Affairs Office) (Frank Dawson Adams Building, Room 22) before applying to the Desautels Faculty of Management.

Many engineers begin to assume management functions within a few years of graduation. They can, at this stage, take up the study of economics, behavioural science, and other management subjects. Students wishing to include such studies in their undergraduate program can take suitable courses from Engineering and Management.

Each Minor is comprised of 18 credits of courses available from the core program of the Desautels Faculty of Management (subject to timetable requirements). Some courses from the Management core program have considerable overlap with Engineering courses and thus are not available to Engineering students.

Students embarking on a minor must be prepared to take credits additional to their Engineering program. Students in a B.Eng. or B.S.E. program may be able to count up to 6 credits of Complementary Studies Group B courses (Humanities and Social Sciences, Management Studies, and Law courses) toward both their Engineering major program and a Management minor where applicable. More information about Complementary Studies is given in each individual academic program listing for the B.Eng. and B.S.E degrees (see Academic Programs).

Students must have a minimum CGPA of 3.0 or better to be considered for one of these Minor programs.

Students planning to take any course with statistics as a prerequisite must have completed MGCR 271 (Business Statistics) or an equivalent course approved by the BCom Student Affairs Office.

Detailed information on these Minor programs can be found in Desautels Faculty of Management > Undergraduate > Overview of Programs Offered by the Desautels Faculty of Management > Minors for Non-Management Students.

The Musical Science and Technology Minor focuses on interdisciplinary topics in science and technology applied to music. The goal of the program is to help prepare students for commercial jobs in the audio technology sector and/or for subsequent graduate research study. The MST Minor is designed to serve students who already have a good background in the sciences and prior experience with math and computer science courses.

Engineering students may apply for admission to the Minor in Musical Science and Technology. Detailed information on this program can be found in Schulich School of Music > Undergraduate > Programs of study > Department of Music Research: Composition; Music Education; Music History; Theory; Faculty Program > Minor Musical Science and Technology (18 credits). Enrolment in Music Technology programs is highly restricted.

Application forms will be available from the Department of Music Research (research.music [at] mcgill.ca; Room A726C) in the Schulich School of Music from February 1, and must be completed and returned to the Department of Music Research by June 1. Late applications will not be accepted and no students will be admitted to the Minor in January. Successful applicants will be notified by June 20. Registration will be limited to available lab space.
