FACULTY OF LAW


CONCURRENT BESc/LLB PROGRAM

The concurrent BESc/LLB program allows students to complete both the BESc degree and the LLB degree in six years, instead of the seven years it takes if the programs are pursued separately.

Successful applicants to concurrent program will enter first year law after completing two years of Engineering. After one year in the Law School, students in the concurrent program will take a combination of Engineering and Law courses in years four, five, and six.

Applicants to the concurrent program will apply at the beginning of the second year of Engineering to the Associate Dean of Engineering Sciences. They will also apply to the Faculty of Law, indicating their intention to pursue the concurrent program. To be eligible for the concurrent program, students must have a cumulative average of 80%, or stand in the top 10% of their class in their Department, in their first two years of Engineering.

Once enrolled in the program, students are required to maintain a minimum weighted average of 75% or B, and stand in the top half of the class in their Department. Students who fail to meet these progression requirements will be required to withdraw from the concurrent program. However, if these students have met the progression requirements of the regular program, they will be allowed to proceed to the next year of that program. These student will be allowed to complete both degrees, but will do so by completing one program and then pursuing the second program.
