Other Information

Graduates with an honours degree in chemistry interested in immediately pursuing a Ph.D. degree must first register as Candidates for the M.Sc. degree. If their progress is satisfactory, they may be transferred into the Ph.D. Program and advanced to Candidacy (Ph.D. I) for the Ph.D. degree, generally after 24 months, and without necessarily completing the thesis requirements for the M.Sc. degree. A graduate student wishing to apply from the M.Sc. Program for admission to the Ph.D. Program must write a report of their research and submit this for approval to an Examining Committee.​
