DEGREE REQUIREMENTS
a) OBTAINING A DEGREE
To obtain a degree, a student must meet the following criteria:
1. Completion of all requirements common to all programs offered
by the Faculty, including:
a) total number of courses;
b) level of courses;
c) passing mark;
d) minimum cumulative grade point average (CGPA);
e) minimum diploma grade point average (DGPA);
f) number of credits to be completed, according to the residence
requirements of the requested degree as specified in the
regulation regarding the minimum number of credits to be
obtained at the University of Ottawa;
g) time limits.
2. Completion of all specific requirements of the program.
3. Formal application for the degree at the Office of the
Registrar.
b) Minimum number of credits to be
obtained at the University of Ottawa
(residence requirements)
To obtain a baccalaureate from the University of Ottawa, a student
must obtain a minimum of 30 credits at the University of Ottawa.
The credits are divided as follows based on the type of
baccalaureate:
Concentration: minimum of 30 credits of which 18 must be in the
chosen discipline.
Honours: minimum of 30 credits in the chosen discipline.
To obtain a certificate from the University of Ottawa, a student
must accumulate a minimum of 15 credits at the University of
Ottawa.
Students who already have one degree from the University of
Ottawa should consult the regulation concerning the granting of a
second degree from the University of Ottawa (see section 8 e).
c) MAXIMUM DURATION OF STUDIES
In cases where students have failed to obtain a degree within eight
years of their date of admission, the Faculty of Engineering
reserves the right to impose new courses where necessary to
comply with any modifications in the program leading to the
degree in which they are enrolled.
d) GRANTING A SECOND DEGREE FROM THE
UNIVERSITY OF OTTAWA
To obtain a second baccalaureate degree from the University of
Ottawa, students must meet the following criteria.
1. They must complete a minimum of 30 credits or the equivalent
beyond the normal requirements of the first degree. At least 15
credits must be taken at the University of Ottawa.
2. They must meet all the specific requirements of the program in
which they are registered. It is understood that students must
always complete a minimum of 30 credits at the University of
Ottawa in order to obtain a degree. They must take the 30
credits in the chosen discipline, except in the BMus program,
and 24 credits for each discipline in the case of joint programs.
In these cases, the calculation of the CGPA takes into account the
courses retained from the first concentration, honours program or
certificate (because they apply to the second degree), as well as the
courses taken after the granting of the first degree.
A maximum of 12 credits at the 1000-level (in addition to those of
the first degree) may be credited towards a second degree.

Web site, at InfoService and at the Undergraduate Office of the
Faculty. This form must be returned to the Office of the Registrar
no later than March 1 for spring convocation and no later than

The final mark for deferred (DFR) courses and courses taken at
another university must be received by the Faculty prior to May 15
for students registered for spring convocation and prior to
September 15 for students registered for fall convocation.
