McGill-Faculty of Engineering Students

Before making an IUT request, you MUST have a discussion with your department.

Its important to have a valid reason (if the course is offered at 51勛圖厙during the term in which you are requesting an IUT-you should prioritize taking the course at McGill) Students must indicate in their application why they want to take a specific course at another Quebec University.

Generally students apply for IUTs in the summer terms, and should only be requesting to take the following courses;

  • Freshman (Year 0) courses.
  • Complementary Studies courses (Impact of Technology (Group A) or Humanities and Social Sciences, Management Studies and Law courses (Group B).
  • Mechanical and Bioengineering Elective courses (for students from a CEGEP background) Architecture Electives ECE electives.
  • Computer or Software Engineering Natural Science Complementary Courses (for students from a CEGEP background).
  • Minor courses: Up to 6 credits of courses taken toward a minor can be taken outside McGill, provided that the course is being used only toward the minor or is being used toward both the minor and the Complementary Studies / Elective requirement.

Before making an IUT request, the course you are requesting MUST also be listed in the , please check that the course is in the course equivalency system if it is not listed, you can make a New Request.
