机械与机电工程专业哲学博士-纳米技术

机械工程学系提供的课程可授予应用科学硕士学位（MASc）
Waterloo's PhD in Political Science is the most innovative program of its kind in Canada, offering students considerable flexibility in core research activities, formal professional development for both academic and non-academic career paths, an experiential option (including access to the world's largest co-op program of its kind, or other internship/placement experiences) and a teaching option (including mentored teaching experiences and formal pedagogical training). Students will have the opportunity to work with internationally and nationally-renowned scholars in the discipline. Students have the option of choosing from three major fields: Canadian Politics, International Relations, and Political Economy. For their secondary field, students may choose either a second major field or create their own ‘custom concentration' based on coursework in a designated area of the discipline (for example: comparative politics, democratic theory, public policy, gender and politics) or from a subfield of their major field (for example: security, rights, etc.). The program includes one year of coursework featuring a mandatory, team-taught methodology course, two courses in the student's major field, two courses in the student's second major field or custom concentration, and one elective. Students must also complete the PhD Professional Development Seminar, a series of half-day seminars offered by the Department and additional workshops delivered by campus units like the Writing and Communications Centre, Centre for Career Action, or Centre for Teaching Excellence. Professional Development training gears students to both academic and non-academic job markets, fostering skills enhancements in research methods, communications to non-academic audiences, fieldwork, conferencing best practices, and career planning.<br><br>The University of Waterloo offers the first MASc and PhD programs in Nanotechnology of its kind in Canada. The MASc collaborative program provides a strong foundation in the emerging areas of nano-engineering in preparation for the workforce or for further graduate study and research leading to a doctoral degree. Exceptional MASc applicants may be considered for direct-entry to the PhD program from a bachelor's program. Applicants interested in being considered for a direct-entry PhD should include a statement to that effect in their Supplementary Information Form (SIF).
