Most universities in Canada have the same thing. In my university you can do a masters "avec mémoire" (with thesis) which is four semesters of full time research.

Yeah, that's what I did, though it was more like 6 semesters including the summers.

You graduate with an MSc or MASc, whereas for the non-research masters, you graduate with an MEng (for the engineering programs).
