An interdisciplinary master's degree integrating resource and environmental issues, melding traditional science with social science perspectives and resource planning and management. Students choose a research emphasis in the social, planned or natural environments.
Department: Natural Resources and Environmental Studies Graduate Program | Duration: Two academic years (normal completion) | Intake: September, January and May | Study mode: full-time | Location: Prince George, British Columbia, Canada
Core courses include NRES 700 Research in NRES, Graduate Colloquia (NRES 701, taken twice), a methods course and an integrated natural resources course, with either a thesis (NRES 792, 12 credit hours) or a project (NRES 793, 6 credit hours). Totals 25 credit hours in either option.
Acceptance is contingent on finding a faculty supervisor. Applicants provide a completed Teaching Assistantship Application and Funding Worksheet, and normally at least two of three recommendation letters (excluding any from the intended supervisor) must come from people able to comment on academic and research potential. Admission to a Master's degree generally requires a four-year baccalaureate degree (or equivalent) from a recognized institution with a minimum 3.00 (B) average in third- and fourth-year courses for domestic applicants; programs may set higher standards. Non-native English speakers show proficiency, for example TOEFL iBT 90 (at least 20 per component), IELTS Academic 6.5 overall (at least 6.0 per module) or PTE Academic 65 (at least 60 per component).
Tuition is charged per credit, so the total depends on the courses you register for each year. Current fees are listed in the official fee schedule.
Most graduate programs admit for Fall (September). Some programs (for example Gender Studies, Interdisciplinary Studies, MASc) also have Winter (January) intakes and Interdisciplinary Studies and MASc have Spring (May) intakes. Some programs no longer offer Winter or Spring intakes.
For Fall (September) entry, applications open 1 October; the first deadline is 15 January for most programs (for example MA in Applied Economics, English, History, Gender Studies, MASc, MEng), with a second domestic deadline of 1 July where offered. Winter (January) entry, where offered, opens 15 January with a first deadline of 1 June and a second domestic deadline of 1 November. Spring (May) entry, where offered, has a first deadline of 1 December and a second domestic deadline of 1 March. MA in Disability Management closes 1 July with no extension.
Graduate application fee: CAD 76.50 for domestic applicants and CAD 153.00 for international applicants, non-refundable and paid at submission online or through the Cashier's Office.
