"MASc" degrees are generally conferred in Commonwealth of Nations for engineering-related studies more academic than those required for the Master of Engineering (MEng). MASc degrees require coursework and a thesis, with the thesis being the major component, whereas a Master of Engineering may require only coursework and a project, with the coursework being the major component.[1]

"MAppSc" and "MApplSc" degrees are conferred in Australia and New Zealand for a wider variety of professional studies, to include practitioner fields outside of engineering.

"MASc" is conferred in at least thirteen North American universities: Arizona State University, Dalhousie University,[2] Delta State University, University of Delaware, University of Nebraska, Carleton university, University of Denver, University of Guelph, Memorial University of Newfoundland, Concordia University,University of Toronto,[3] McMaster University,[4] and York University,[5] in the more expansive manner of Australia and New Zealand.

"MESc" is conferred at The University of Western Ontario,[6] although the degree is equivalent to the MASc.
