Program Overview
Safety and risk concerns are of paramount importance in a wide variety of complex engineering activities such as offshore operations, petroleum refining, and mineral processing. Today, there is a wide range of techniques available to assess safety, risk and reliability, both in relation to design as well as day-to-day operations.
The use of these techniques is now an integral part of safety-related regulations of hazardous facilities and operations. Memorial University's MASc. and graduate diploma programs in safety and risk engineering are designed to give a thorough understanding of these techniques and their application to a variety of real-world problems.
The discipline is the only one of its kind in Canada.
- It aims to provide students with a good grounding in safety and risk engineering in both a qualitative and quantitative manner, and to develop the skills to apply this understanding.
- The programs will also introduce students to recent developments in analytical techniques, such as computer modelling of risk, reliability and safety problems, dynamic risk analysis, etc.
- The programs are intended for, though not limited to, working professionals to advance their understanding and skill related to safety and risk engineering.
- The knowledge acquired through the programs will enhance the skills of engineers in the process industries, oil and gas service and operating companies, mineral processing, engineering consultants and government services.
- The programs build around the knowledge and understanding of accident modelling, process and offshore safety issues.
- Engineering and human factors associated with the safety and risk assessment will also be covered.

Scholarships
Entrance scholarships
Upon admission, Memorial University offers international students opportunities to receive scholarships and awards, as funding allows. If you meet the eligibility criteria you will automatically be considered (not a guarantee to receive) for an entrance scholarship. That means, no additional application is necessary.
International entrance scholarships are awarded for a students' first year of study and are non-renewable. International transfer students will only be considered for an entrance scholarship if fewer than 31 credit hours are transferred. Students will be notified if they are successful in receiving a scholarship.
Entrance scholarships include:
Memorial University of Newfoundland International Entrance Scholarship |
IUGS Entrance Scholarship for Undergraduate Students |
Convera Scholarship (formerly Western Union Scholarship) |
These scholarships have been established by Memorial University of Newfoundland as part of an agreement by the Board of Regents, in May 2003, that a portion of the tuition fees for international undergraduate students would be set aside for International Scholarships. The values will vary but will not exceed $6,000 each annually. To be considered for these scholarships, a student must be eligible to pay the full international undergraduate fee, must register for at least 9 credit hours in each of two semesters in their first academic year at Memorial University of Newfoundland, should normally have fewer than 31 credit hours of transfer credits and meet scholarship standing (comparable to that prescribed for Newfoundland and Labrador and Canadian applicants). These scholarships will be awarded by the Senate Committee on Undergraduate Scholarships, Bursaries and Awards. | This scholarship has been made available by the university through a portion of funds from the St. John’s International undergraduate student tuition fees (IUGS). It will be awarded to new undergraduate international students on the St. John’s campus. The scholarship will be valued at $6,000 and not normally be renewable. To be considered for this scholarship, a student must be eligible to pay the full international undergraduate fees and meet scholarship standing (comparable to that prescribed for Newfoundland and Labrador and Canadian applicants). A student may not hold this scholarship in conjunction with another general International entrance scholarship of significant value. The scholarship will be administered by the Senate Committee on Undergraduate Scholarships, Bursaries and Awards based on the recommendation of the Registrar (or designate) and the Director of Internationalization Office (or designate). | This scholarship was established by a generous donation from Convera who is trusted by more than 800 institutions, including 8 of the top 10 ranked universities globally, to provide easy international payment solutions for students. Whether you are paying for tuition or accommodation, Convera provides a range of international payment options and allows you to pay in your local currency so you know exactly how much the transaction will cost you. Valued at a portion of the income on the endowment, it will be awarded annually to an international student who is entering their first year of full-time study in any undergraduate degree program at any campus of Memorial University of Newfoundland. Recipients must meet the minimum academic requirements for a scholarship as defined by the University. This scholarship is renewable for an additional three (3) years, provided the recipient continues in an undergraduate program and maintains scholarship standing. In the event that the recipient is completing a degree that requires five (5) years of study, then the scholarship can be renewed for a fourth additional year. A new recipient will be selected only when the previous student completes their eligibility. This scholarship will be awarded by the Senate Committee on Undergraduate Scholarships, Bursaries and Awards on the recommendation of the Assistant Registrar, International Admissions. |
