Program details
Program Structure
Students in the EAP program complete courses in research methods, statistics, ethics, and courses relevant to their thesis research, as well as courses in other areas of interest to the student. Both M.Sc. and Ph.D. candidates complete thesis research, developed in consultation with the student’s supervisor and a thesis committee. Following acceptance of a thesis by the student’s thesis committee, an oral examination (defense) will be held. Doctoral candidates are also required to complete a comprehensive examination. The format of the comprehensive examination is flexible, with students able to choose from among several options including writing a mock research grant proposal, completing a research practicum with a community partner, or developing a new course, as best meets the career objectives of the student. M.Sc. students typically complete their program of study in two years; Ph.D. students typically complete their program of study in three years.
