Doctor of Philosophy
Minimum Duration
At least five semesters of full-time study must be devoted to the doctoral program following completion of a recognized master's degree. At least seven semesters are required for those who are permitted to proceed from the honours baccalaureate without completing the master's degree. For a student registered part-time, the minimum duration period is based on the equivalence of three part- time semesters to one full-time semester.
