A graduate program is a program (academic) offered to graduate students. It is defined by both the graduate degree (e.g. Ph.D., M.Sc.) and the degree program.

There are specific degree-level expectations for master’s and doctoral programs offered at York University. Program-specific learning outcomes must be consistent with and build upon degree-level expectations. 

The outlined program length for graduate programs ensures that the program requirements can be reasonably completed within the proposed time period.
