The School of Graduate Studies currently offers approximately 40 graduate collaborative programs. Collaborative programs emerge from cooperation between two or more graduate units (department, centres, or institutes). The collective experience of the participating graduate units provides the student with a broader base from which to explore a novel interdisciplinary area or some special development in a particular discipline.

The student must be admitted to, and enrol in, one of the collaborating graduate units and must fulfil all the requirements for the degree in the home unit and any additional requirements of the collaborative program. Each collaborative program is designed to allow a focus in the area of specialty. On successful completion of the program, the student receives a transcript notation.
