All full-time doctoral students are required to submit the Progress Report Form in the fall (due December) and winter terms (due April). Part-time doctoral students need to submit this report once a year – in the winter term (due April).

The report consists of details on any missed milestones, what progress has been made in the current term and what are the goals for the next term, as well as the overall plan for the completion of the thesis. This report needs to be filled by the student in consultation with their thesis supervisor(s). When the Progress Report Form is submitted, a copy goes to the student’s supervisor(s) and the Grad Director. If any issues are spotted in terms of the progress of a doctoral student towards program completion, the Grad Director will follow up with the s student and potentially may inform the Dean of Graduate Studies for necessary action(s).

A copy of this report for each term is kept in the student’s file.

It is the responsibility of each student to ensure that this report is submitted in a timely fashion.
