All MSc students must remain continuously registered in one of the thesis (CPSC 549A or 549B) or essay (CPSC 589) options until the degree is completed except for periods of time when the student is away on an official leave of absence. Failure to register for two consecutive terms may result in the student being required to withdraw.

Doctoral supervisors, co-supervisors, and committee members, and master's supervisors and co-supervisors, must be members of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies or have been approved by the appropriate bodies (see Non-members of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies as Supervisory Committee Members and Supervision of Graduate Students by Non-members of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies , as appropriate, for approval processes). It is recommended that at least one committee member be from a graduate program other than the student’s. At least half of the members of ALL supervisory committees must be members of the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies.
Official sourceSupervisor_Requirement
During the first year, students who have completed at least 12 credits of course work with an excellent academic record and support from their supervisor may request to transfer directly into the PhD program before completing the MSc degree. The transfer is subject to the student’s successful completion of the Research Proficiency Evaluation (RPE) . Upon receiving the formal recommendation letter from the supervisor and successful completion of RPE, the Graduate Affairs Committee will recommend the transfer to Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies. Transfer directly into the doctoral program is not normally permitted beyond 18 months of study at the MSc level and in no case is it permitted after completion of the second year. Please note that transferring from an MSc to a PhD program is rare and only exceptional students are considered.
