This interdisciplinary Ph.D. program in Environmental Science studies environmental problems through a systemic approach, drawing on faculty from the social sciences, chemistry, geography, biological sciences, and Earth and atmospheric sciences to address complex ecological and societal issues. Field-based coursework takes place in locations such as the Amazon rainforest and northern Quebec, giving students direct exposure to the environments they study. The 90-credit program culminates in an original research thesis; candidates must have prepared a preliminary thesis project and secured a thesis supervisor's agreement in principle before admission, and must demonstrate sufficient knowledge of both French and English. Full-time study takes four years and part-time study six years, with courses offered during the day, occasional intensive activities on weekends, and continuous admission throughout the year.
