Students in a collaborative specialization must meet all the requirements of their home department in terms of course work, practicum, and/or thesis, in addition to taking the specialized courses of the collaborative program.


Some collaborative specializations are open to students in both the Master’s and Doctoral programs. Please check your degree's program page to see which collaborative programs are possible. 

 

Collaborative Specialization Requirements:

  • All usual requirements for the degree program in the home department
     
  • A thesis topic or practicum placement relevant to the collaborative specialization (depending on the degree requirement)
     
  • A thesis supervisor or member of the thesis committee, depending on the specialization, must be appointed to the collaborative specialization
     
  • Each specialization has specific course requirements
