of the doctoral program. Entering without an MA degree, you
are “PhD 1”, in your first year of the doctoral program.
• You have 6 years to finish your PhD degree, i.e. PhD 2 – PhD 7,
or PhD 1 – PhD 6.
• You are expected to finish your coursework in the first two
years. (Statistics courses are often taken later.)
• You are expected to defend your Candidacy Papers by the end
of the summer of your second year.
• Progress Reports, signed by student, supervisor(s) and
committee members, are required by the end of September for
all students, annually. A link to the form is available on the
DISE Graduate Ph.D site.

42. Why time limitations?
• Train students to define objectives and meet them
proficiently and efficiently.
• Our resources are limited.
• government funding for PhD students is given
only in the first 3.4 years of program
• limited number and availability of faculty
supervisors
• funding sources are increasingly competitive and
scarce
• Your resources are limited.
• Balancing act with family, finances, health and
work
42
43. Candidacy Papers
(formerly Comprehensive Examinations)
• Not comprehensive, not exams, but to determine that you are
ready for dissertation research www.mcgill.ca/edu-
dise/students/graduate.
• Two or three questions, agreed on by student and committee.
• In regard to your research question(s), one paper is typically
“What do we know about this?” (literature review) and the
other “How will I find out?” (methodology).
• You consult with supervisor and committee while developing
your responses.
• Register with Graduate Program Coordinator for the term in
which you expect to defend them.
• You must defend your papers orally and pass ethical review (if
applicable) before data collection.
43
44. Candidacy Papers & Milestones
• You are expected to defend your CP by the end of your second
year (i.e. August 31).
• If you successfully defend by this deadline, you receive an
ABDUL ($2,000). This “All But Dissertation” award is
incentive and reward for timely completion. This award is for
students who complete on time.
• If you do not pass this milestone at the designated time, you
may request an extension of one semester (i.e. Fall) citing
unforeseen and extraordinary circumstances. This will require
the assent of the doctoral advisory committee, the GPD and the
Chair.
• If the extension deadline is not met; you will receive an
Unsatisfactory progress report and a new date will be set for an
interim progress report.
44
45. PROGRESS REPORTS
• These are mandated by GPS and help us ensure that you are
keeping on track.
• The first report form is a contract for the coming academic year,
due by the end of September 2017.
• Subsequent report forms are due by the end of June each year.
• Progress is attested to by both student, supervisor(s) and advisory
committee.
• If a progress report is unsatisfactory, another progress report will
be due 3-6 months later (determined by student, supervisor and
GPD).
• Two unsatisfactory progress reports mean that the student might
be asked to withdraw from the program.
• The use of the GPS form is now mandatory:

45
46. LEAVES OF ABSENCE
• Different types of leave, usually family, medical or
employment; all require documentation.
• Grants and student visas do not continue during a leave.
• You must be officially registered as on leave. Do not
simply disappear; you may end up not finishing, and
owing lots of back fees.
• Stop the clock rather than grind to a halt!
