Help Please! Studying in Canada with a 3-year Bachelor degree

Hi everyone,

I’m trying to figure out the smartest way to continue my studies in Canada. Here’s my situation:

• I have a 3-year bachelor’s degree in Process Engineering from a foreign country.
• I’m interested in aerospace/aircraft-related fields (mechanical, materials, physics, chemistry, etc.).
• I’ve heard that in Canada, a 3-year degree usually isn’t enough for a master’s, so I might need to apply as a transfer student into a bachelor’s program.
• I’d like to transfer as many credits as possible so I can skip 1–2 years and not start completely from scratch.
• I need to study in English. I do speak some french, but not enoguh for academics.

My questions:

1. For someone with my background, is it better to try for a master’s in a related field or to transfer into a bachelor’s program?
2. If I go the transfer route, which universities/programs in Canada are most likely to give generous credit transfers for engineering/science courses?
3. If you think am asking the wrong questions, also please do let me know. I don't know much about Canada.

Any advice or experiences would help a lot. I’m feeling a bit lost and want to make the best move before applying.

Thanks in advance!
