Academic study and research are the core of the graduate experience at UBCO. Many resources are available to help graduate students thrive academically and take charge of their educations.

The College of Graduate Studies supports current master’s and doctoral students throughout a student’s graduate career. For help planning your academic program, speak to a Graduate Program Coordinator in your program of interest. Coordinators can assist with program planning, degree requirements and other course-related questions.
