Engineering practice today demands a breadth of skills: not only technical, but also an understanding of leadership, finance and business, management, entrepreneurship and innovation. Engineers often appreciate the importance of such skills only after they join the workforce.
The Emphasis in ELITE offers University of Toronto MEng students a broad range of courses in these topics. The first of its kind in Canada, the ELITE Emphasis is targeted at engineers seeking to develop a more well-rounded skill set.
To earn the Emphasis in ELITE, MEng students must complete:
Former APS leadership courses, now renamed TEP under the Institute for Studies in Transdisciplinary Engineering Education & Practice (ISTEP), are eligible to be counted towards the ELITE emphasis still (with some exceptions).
As best we can, ELITE courses are scheduled with working professionals in mind. We offer a mix of daytime, evening and Saturday morning courses in each of the fall, winter, and summer sessions. The format of the courses varies: some are taught once a week for 12 weeks. A few are taught online. Others, especially in the summer, are taught on a 2-week intensive basis.
The table below lists the ELITE course schedule for the coming year, as we know it today, and is subject to change. Students are encouraged to check regularly for updated information.
Students who complete the requirements of the Emphasis in ELITE will be able to have their ELITE Emphasis be noted on their transcript. This notation will only appear once you receive your degree and graduate.
To confirm completion of the ELITE Emphasis at the end of your studies, please complete this form at least 2 weeks before your graduation date.
PLEASE NOTE:
*View what courses MEng students who have completed the emphasis have taken. These are only sample pathways, you are welcome to create your own course pathway (that meets requirements of the emphasis) that suits your own needs.
