Development Studies Option

The Development Studies Option (DSO) is a cross-disciplinary M.A. program designed to provide students with a strong practical and theoretical foundation for engaging in genuinely cross-disciplinary research. There is NO graduate degree in International Development Studies offered at Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ and successful applicants to the DSO must first apply to and be admitted into the MA programs of one of six participating departments:

  • .

The Institute for the Study of International Development does not admit graduate students independently and cannot answer your inquiries about admission to Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ.

DSO students will complete the regular requirements of their departments for a Masters degree, as well as the additional cross-disciplinary requirements for the DSO. The DSO is a reflection of Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ’s long-standing tradition of research and education in international development. Within the six participating departments alone, there are approximately 30 professors and 100 graduate students currently working on development issues - undoubtedly one of the largest concentrations of development scholars and students at any university in Canada. Researchers in these units have well-established international reputations and are recognized by their peers as leaders in their fields.

For more information on the Development Studies Option, please contact the kirsty.mckinnon [at] mcgill.ca (Institute for the Study of International Development) or the Director of Graduate Studies in any of the participating programs.
