What degrees are offered?
May non-chemical engineering students apply? The department accepts students with a science (e.g. chemistry, biochemistry) or other engineering background. Students are required to take a certain number of courses in chemical engineering (typically two to four half courses) in additional to the regular program requirement. These courses provide a sound knowledge of the fundamentals of chemical engineering. What are the academic criteria for admission? Many factors are considered for the review process of applications, such as educational background and sound knowledge of the relevant field of interest, as well as industrial experience and/or publication record. General admission average is based on UWO’s grade-scale, and transcript assessments are performed to evaluate and convert institutional averages to this scale. Is financial support available?
The Department offers three degrees – the M.S. Degree in Speech-Language Pathology, the Clinical doctoral degree in Audiology – Au.D and the Ph.D. degree in Audiology. The M.S. and Au.D. degrees are considered the entry level degrees required for those planning to become speech-language pathologists and audiologists.
