School of Graduate Studies
School of Graduate Studies (est. 1922)
The School of Graduate Studies of the University of Toronto is in charge of all the graduate studies in the university. It also works to effectively establish and implement appropriate regulations and operating procedures for admissions, programs of study, and completion of degree requirements. It is under the direct supervision of the Council and is divided into 4 divisions: Humanities, Social Sciences, Physical Sciences, and Life Sciences. All the graduate degree programs belong to one of the divisions and each graduate student is enrolled in one of the graduate departments.
Master's degrees were first awarded in 1843; the first PhD degree was offered in 1897. A Board of Graduate Studies was established in 1915, leading to the establishment of the School of Graduate Studies in 1922 with its own Council, Dean, and Secretary.
SGS held jurisdiction over graduate degrees and courses of graduate instruction in all faculties of the University. In 1922, SGS enrolled 300 students. Today, there are 13,500 graduate students registered in approximately 100 graduate degree programs. Approximately half of those degree programs are professional master’s programs; the other half are doctoral stream master’s and PhD programs.
In 1965 the School was reorganized and expanded. Today it comprises about 80 departments, centres, and institutes, offering approximately 150 different graduate programs.
