General Information

Any second year course pattern in Engineering is acceptable for admission to third year Electrical Engineering or to third year Computer Engineering provided the requisite standing in Chemistry, Mathematics and Physics is obtained

Note: The baccalaureate degree programmes in Electrical Engineering and Computer Engineering are accredited by the Canadian Engineering Accreditation Board of the Canadian Council of Professional Engineers.

Physical Conditioning and Second Language Courses

Important: The physical conditioning courses and the second language courses are part of the four-pillar degree and apply to all RMC degree programmes except the 30-credit general degree programmes.

LCF: Based on the result of a placement test, students will be registered in LCF courses at the 100, 200, 300, or 400-level. Students will automatically be exempt from applicable lower level LCF courses once placed in the appropriate course. Students who attain a Second Official Language (SOL) proficiency level of at least BBB or higher on the Public Service Commission (PSC) Second Language Evaluation (SLE) will be exempt from LCF courses at RMC.

ATE101: Foundations of Fitness, Health and Sports
ATE301: Unarmed Combatives, Military Skills and Individual Sports
LCF100 : Compétence de base – partie I
LCF200 : Compétence de base – partie II
LCF301 : Compétence intermédiaire – partie I
LCF302 : Compétence intermédiaire – partie II
LCF400 : Compétence intermédiaire - partie III

Note: The PSC SLE is the only SOL certification-testing instrument currently accredited and used by the CAF to assess the SOL proficiency level. (DAOD 5039-8, Canadian Armed Forces Second Official Language Certification Testing)

Computer Engineering Notes

Note 5

In exceptional cases, GEE167 may be replaced by another course deemed acceptable by the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering.

Return to Note 5 referrer

Note 6

It is noted that, except for course PSE401: Military Professionalism and Ethics, the Winter Term of the fourth year of the Computer Engineering programme has duration of twelve weeks in order to accommodate for the CDX (Cyber Defense Exercise) as a requirement for course EEE404: Cyber Defence. The twelve-week term is followed by a three-week period consisting of the two-week CDX (Cyber Defense Exercise) and a one-week exam period. Depending on CDX scheduling, the exams may take place in either the thirteenth or the fifteenth week, they will be conducted out-of-hall and they will not interfere with course PSE401.

Laboratories and Equipment

The laboratories and offices of the department are located on the third, fourth and fifth floors of Modules 1 and 2 of the Sawyer Building (Building 69).

The department has a number of modern, well-equipped laboratories which permit the students to supplement their theoretical knowledge with practical experience. They allow the students to conduct experiments in electronics, communications and radar, energy conversion and machines, automatic control and robotics, analog simulation, microcomputers, computer networks and operating systems, 3-D graphics, VLSI system design and digital signal processing.

In addition, research rooms and facilities are provided for staff and graduate studies research. The principal research areas of the department are Communications and Radar, Automatic Control and Robotics, Power, Microprocessor applications and Embedded Computer systems, VLSI, Software Engineering and Real-Time Operating systems, with emphasis on applicability to the needs of the Canadian Armed Forces.
