Normally, students will apply for the concurrent degree program during their second year in the Faculty of Engineering. Applications must be made in writing to the Office of the Associate Dean - Academic, Faculty of Engineering by the published deadlines of the Ivey School of Business for the HBA program. It is the student's responsibility to ensure that a separate application is submitted to the Ivey School of Business.

Admission Procedures

A student enrolled in the concurrent HBA/BESc degree program must satisfy the progression requirements as determined by each Faculty.
