SESE and Collaborative Programs
SESE students and applicants are eligible to apply for any of the collaborative programs listed below. The collective experience of the participating graduate unit (SESE) provides the student with a broader base from which to explore a novel interdisciplinary area or some special development in a particular discipline.
The student must be admitted to, and enrol in, a SESE degree and must fulfil all the requirements for that degree and any additional requirements of the collaborative program. Each collaborative program is designed to allow a focus in the area of specialty. On successful completion of the program, the student receives a transcript notation.
- Aboriginal Health
- Comparative, International and Development Education
- Diaspora and Transnational Studies
- Educational Policy
- Environmental Studies

Applicants applying for a collaborative program must indicate their choice on the SGS on-line application form.
Students currently registered in SESE and wishing to enroll in a collaborative program should contact the program's office directly for more information. Currently registered students who are admitted to a collaborative program are required to complete a Transfer Request form and submit it to the SESE Admissions Committee Chair, currently Peter Sawchuk.
