平特五不中

The Graduate program

The Department of Food Science and Agricultural Chemistry offers both MSc and PhD programs. The requirement to enter M.Sc program is a CGPA of 3.0 or better or 3.2 (as standardized by 平特五不中) in the last two years of the undergraduate degree in Food Science. Entry is possible from other disciplines, however, one will be expected to do a qualifying term or year to pick up related courses to orient oneself to Food Science. The basic requirement to enter Ph.D program is a CGPA of 3.4 or better in the M.Sc level and 3.2 in the last two years of the undergraduate degree (as standardized by 平特五不中). In addition, entry into the graduate program also hinges on the availability of supervisory staff and financing; however, it is advisable that the applicant for the M.Sc. degree, if听 he/she so wishes, to select non-thesis M.Sc. option as a second choice in the application form, to enhnce chances of听admission to the Food Science Graduate Progam. See below Departmental Admission Guidelines.

In order to enter听a thesis progarm听in the Department, other than as a qualifying student, a staff member must be available to supervise the thesis work. Maximum flexibility is available to scholarship, government or self funded students in terms of selecting their areas of research. In the more general case, funding and research topics are provided by the supervisor based on grants they hold from government/industry agencies. Because public funds are often involved, it is generally stipulated that they can only be used for supporting Canadian or Landed Immigrant status students. Hence, foreign students applying for entry to the graduate program without their own guaranteed funding or their government's support have little chance of being accepted, as the Department does not have the resources to support such cases. It should be noted that foreign students in thesis programs need about $20,000 (Cdn) per year in total for tuition fees. An amount of $10000-15000 is recommended for living expenses. Please see the respective web pages for the non-thesis programs for the estimated cost for those programs.
