Requirements for Polytechnique#
Details of the program on the Polymtl website.
The rules say that âAt most 6 credits can be undergraduate courses and at least 8 credits must be courses in the field of biomedical engineering or other and approved by the CPĂSâ, but this is a relaxed rules. Courses in computer science, deep learning, etc. are accepted.
For exemption of additional fees as foreign student, you need at least 6 credits completed, of grad courses at Polytechnique Montréal.

Jury
Please refer to the RÚglements généraux des études supérieures (53.4 COMPOSITION ET NOMINATION DU JURY).
Details of the program on the Polymtl website.
Candidates who already took courses in a previous graduate program (eg: Master) can obtain an exemption for some of the courses listed in the âPlan de coursâ at Polytechnique. For more details, see article 73.1.1. To request the exemption, ask the form to Amal Bennani (biomedical-es@polymtl.ca). The procedure is to: (i) Fill up the âPlan de coursâ with ONLY the courses to take, (ii) Fill up the document âEXEMPTION DE CREDITS DE COURSâ, and list the courses that were taken at a previous graduate program, (iii) Send both documents to Amal.
Important
There exist an agreement between universities across Quebec, called CREPUQ, that allow students to transfer academic credits between institutions. So for example, you could attend a course at UdeM or McGill and receive the credits at Polytechnique Montreal as part of your gradutate program.
