Hi
My brother has three years diploma of Associate Engineer in Civil from Pakistan. I am planing for his higher study in Canada. Is there any university in Canada accepting this three years degree and offering master program, because most of university asking 4 years degree if student need admission in master program. Or he is just eligible for graduate in diploma?

Thanks

His diploma is not even equivalent to a 3 year bachelor's degree, talk less of a 4-year degree. I doubt any university in Canada will give admission to Masters with a 3 year diploma from Pakistan, so yeah his best chances are PGD programs from colleges. Just make sure it's a public DLI.

Like anywhere including in Canada, he would not get admission in any master degree program in Pakistan either

Mr. Mohamed Gul. I am in a similar situation where my brother has DAE in Civil (3 years after matric) and would like to know what are the possible options for study and would appreciate if you can guide me the procedure and any related university and fees and overall costs. Currently residing in United Arab Emirates. Jazak Allah for your kind advice.
