The ESS offers and coordinates a wide range of academic services for engineering students at the University of Alberta.

Math and Applied Sciences Centre (MASC)

MASC provides academic services to students. Carmen and Markus have helped countless engineers with their studies for over 13 years, and they’re excellent instructors.

• Seminars held weekly to review course content in an informal, small group setting. Includes midterm and final exam reviews.
• Midterm reviews are 3-hour intensive topic-by-topic reviews of typical exam questions.
• Final exam reviews are similar to midterm reviews, but are four hours in length.

See the MASC website or call Carmen and Markus at (780) 492-6272 for more information.

Academic Support Centre

The Academic Support Centre’s primary goal is to enhance students’ learning and writing skills, assisting them to achieve their full potential in their pursuit of academic excellence.

To accomplish this, they offer classes and seminars throughout the term, online workshops for students to complete on their own schedule, and one-on-one sessions for students with specific concerns.
