Resources for graduate students

The Faculty of Graduate Studies has implemented Advisor-Student Guidelines (ASG) to assist advisors/co-advisors and students in establishing mutually acceptable guidelines for their working relationship, thereby enhancing the graduate experience.

The ASG is required for all students in thesis and practicum routes. It is to be completed prior to the commencement of any research and no later than the submission of the student’s first Progress Report. Full details on the ASG can be found on the Faculty of Graduate Studies website.

The Faculty of Graduate Studies Academic Guide contains all the rules and policies related to the Faculty of Graduate Studies. One of the major goals of this guide is to prevent potential problems that may affect the completion of a student’s program. It's equally your responsibility — as it is ours — to read and follow the policies outlined on the supplemental regulations for nursing.
