The Joint PhD in Educational Studies is offered jointly by Lakehead University, Brock University, and the University of Windsor, and promotes scholarly inquiry and the production of new knowledge within a research culture. The thesis-based doctorate is organized around three fields of study: Cognition and Learning, Educational Leadership and Policy Studies, and Social/Cultural/Political Contexts of Education. Delivery combines face-to-face seminars, tutorials, and distance education across the three partner campuses, and admitted students design an individualized plan of study with a faculty supervisor. Applicants must provide evidence of research competence normally demonstrated by a completed master's thesis, and are expected to be graduates of a recognized university holding a master's degree or equivalent. The program has a flexible residency requirement of four terms (two consecutive) rather than continuous on-campus attendance. Full-time students are expected to complete all degree requirements within a minimum of nine terms (three years), with a maximum of eighteen terms (six years) permitted for degree completion.
