    Master’s Degree in Canada

     Master’s degree generally takes 1-2 years to complete in Canada and is provided as Thesis Based or Course Based programs. Course based programs only include courses during the program and it is not necessary to submit a thesis to complete the program. These programs are generally along with projects and often designed to prepare the students to enter the labor market after graduation. So, they are not suitable for entering Ph.D. programs and higher levels. Course based programs normally take 1-2 years. However, in a thesis based program, the student need to work on a research project with help of her/his supervisor and submit a thesis to get master’s degree. Thesis based master’s programs are generally supported by funds or scholarships provided by university or the supervisor. Thesis based programs takes 2-3 years.

    To gain admission to a master’s program, you need to have a bachelor degree with GPA of higher than 14 (may differ in different universities) and have language degree (for example: IELTS score of at least 6 or 5). Moreover, for gaining admission to a thesis based master’s program, you need to have good resume to be successful in finding a good supervisor before applying the university who accept you as her/his student.

So, Ph.D. programs require finding a supervisor before applying for the university. Most of Ph.D. projects are sponsored by large companies inside or outside of Canada. Therefore, most of the professors in Ph.D. programs offer funding grants or scholarships for students as their wages. This funds generally cover complete tuition and the sometimes an amount is provided for living costs of the students during their study.

    Gaining admission to Ph.D. programs in Canada requires having bachelor and master’s degree with GPA higher than 14 and a language degree (for example: IELTS score of at least 6 or 6.5). However, the main factor to enter this program is your ability to convince the supervisor and having a good resume or CV. Generally, gaining admission to Ph.D. programs in Canada needs a good academic resume (including valid published papers) and good English level.
