Teaching

Post Funding Teaching

PhD students are normally provided with financial support for a period of five years. The objective is that students will have completed enough of their program to be able to take a job. Many students do not finish in that time; some obtain outside funding such as research fellowships, but others may teach as sessional instructors in the School of Business. Departments are usually able to provide such sessional instructor positions, dependent on students' teaching capabilities. See also Funding.


Teaching Development

Students are strongly encouraged to complete the Graduate Teaching and Learning Program offered by the Faculty of Graduate & Postdoctoral Studies.


Teaching Requirements

Students are strongly encouraged to complete the Graduate Teaching and Learning Program Level 1 offered by the Faculty of Graduate & Postdoctoral Studies by the start of their third year in the program. Alternatively, they can complete 15 hours of teaching workshops and 10 hours of teaching mentorship to prepare them for teaching in their third year of the program.
