It also offers multiple master's degree programs and doctorate in engineering.

It is well-known for its student-run technical clubs. One of the world's fastest human powered submarines, Omer[1] (http://omer.etsmtl.ca), was developed by one such club. A robotic submarine named SONIA[2] (http://sonia.etsmtl.ca), a walking robot[3] (http://wm.etsmtl.ca/), Eclipse[4] (http://eclipse.etsmtl.ca/) the solar powered car and many others have won countless prizes over the years.

The school is represented in Canadian Interuniversity Sport by the ETS Piranhas.
