| The Department of Psychology offers M.A. and Ph.D. level programs in both Clinical and Experimental and Applied psychology. The doctoral program in Clinical Psychology is accredited by the Canadian Psychological Association. Fully qualified acceptance into the M.A. program requires an Honours degree or equivalent in psychology. Fully qualified acceptance into either stream of Doctoral studies requires previous academic preparation equivalent to the Master's degree programs offered in the department. In some cases, students may be required to complete certain specified courses prior to pursuing graduate study. In all cases, the graduate programs offered in the Department of Psychology are subject to the general regulations of the Faculty of Graduate Studies and Research. |
These courses are intended as guidelines. Speak to your guidance counsellor to see what courses are offered at your school.
Admission normally requires that the applicant has obtained a thesis-based Master's degree in the discipline. At the time the recommendation is made, the supervisor(s) must be identified, and in faculties lacking formal departments, the Dean of the faculty or designate must indicate approval. An applicant who is judged deficient in background training or in courses prerequisite to scholarly work in the particular subject(s) of study and research will not be admitted as a doctoral student. An applicant may be admitted as a Master's student and be required to undertake specific courses or activities towards establishing appropriate credentials, but any graduate study undertaken for this purpose cannot be counted as time spent toward formal requirements for the degree. Alternatively, an applicant may be accepted at the Master's level as a means of illustrating suitability to enter a doctoral program, and after the first year may request, through the academic unit, a transfer to a Ph.D. program |
