Graduate Diploma Research Form

Students interested in the Graduate Diploma program will be required to connect with a potential supervisor prior to applying. Once a supervisor has been identified and is agreeable, the prospective supervisor will submit the Graduate Diploma Research form to the Graduate Chair, Research-based Programs. This completed form needs to be reviewed and approved by the Graduate Chair, prior to student initiating the application. The purpose of this research form is to confirm that adequate time will be dedicated to the research project and program responsibilities, and that the research project can be completed.

The student may submit their application when approval is received from the Graduate Chair, Research-based Programs.
