Students are encouraged to consult with their supervisory committee to gain access to additional trainings, certifications, and/or professional development opportunities within and outside of 91亚色, based on their ILP.

Students are required to satisfactorily pass a comprehensive examination before advancing as candidates. The objective of the examination is to determine whether:

  • The student鈥檚 proposed research is suitable for doctoral research;
  • The student has demonstrated aptitude for conducting the proposed research by means of adequate progress and productivity in their ILP; and
  • The student has adequate background and intellectual ability to pursue independent research in the interdisciplinary field of global health.

The 2-3 hour examination is based on an oral presentation to a comprehensive examining committee; quality of responses to examiner questions; and a written submission. The written submission is due minimum 3 weeks prior to the oral presentation and comprises of 1) a comprehensive and critical literature review of the doctoral research topic鈥揹eveloped in the form of a near-complete or submitted manuscript; and 2) a research proposal articulating the questions, theory and methodologic approach including ethics oversight, where applicable, that will guide the doctoral research鈥揹eveloped in the form of a near-complete or submitted grant application.

    Playwriting students. The objective of the playwriting area is to develop imagination and powers of observation, to stretch the playwrights鈥 reach and to help them discover a wide variety of options.

    Design students.
