The General Engineering Program (GEP) is a 30-credit course of study for the first year of a Bachelor of Engineering degree for students who have not completed a Quebec CEGEP diploma. Upon successful completion of these requirements, students must apply for placement and continue in a B.Eng. or B.S.E. program.

The GEP is not open to students with more than 6 transfer credits toward their engineering major (e.g., transfer credits from Advanced Placement (AP) exams or from courses taken at other universities).
