Accelerated Master's Program
|
Content Added
|
The goal of Accelerated Master’s programs is to provide exceptional School of Public Health and Health Systems' (SPHHS) students a seamless transition into a master’s degree, with a potential to accelerate receipt of the graduate degree.
An Accelerated Master's program is one in which it is deemed academically advantageous to treat the educational process leading through either the Bachelor of Science (BSc) Honours Health Studies or the Bachelor of Public Health (BPH) programs to scientific and practice-based master’s degrees (i.e., Master of Science (MSc), Master of Public Health (MPH), Master of Health Informatics (MHI), or Master of Health Evaluation (MHE)) as a single continuous integrated whole, while at the same time satisfying the requirements for both degrees.

Milestones
- Students receive $1,000,000 CAD in a virtual brokerage account and they use this cash during their study to manage a portfolio which includes stocks, bonds, options, futures, currencies, and other securities from over 55 exchanges in over 30 countries. Students will be required to trade various securities, engage in various trading strategies and portfolio allocation strategies. Each milestone comes with explicit deliverables that students must submit electronically and meet to receive credit. The first milestone cannot be completed before eight months from the date of their first trade has elapsed. The last milestone must be completed in the student’s final 4B term, not less than two months prior to the end of the term.
