As a global hub for mining technology and research, Sudbury hosts the planet's biggest clusters for mineral exploration and mining services. The city boasts two of the deepest mines worldwide and serves as headquarters for multiple international mining corporations. After suffering from industrial pollution for years, Sudbury has gained UN recognition for its remarkable environmental recovery, now known as the Sudbury Protocol. Today, the city is looked to for environmental solutions worldwide. Laurentian's close access to mining operations by Vale, Glencore, Kidd Creek, Hemlo, Red Lake, Goldcorp, Placer Dome, and northwestern Quebec mines, plus E.B. Eddy's extensive wood processing plants in Espanola, creates an ideal setting for researching environmental effects, management strategies, and ecosystem restoration.

Qualification Requirements

Applicants for admission to the Ph.D. program normally hold a Master's degree (or equivalent) from a recognized university, with a minimum grade of B (70%). Applicants must provide evidence of suitable educational background and potential for advanced research in their selected discipline. Letters from referees, professional experience and publication records are additional criteria that may be taken into consideration for admission. A student with an undergraduate degree will not formally be admitted directly into the Ph.D. program. M.A.Sc. students wishing to transfer to the Ph.D. program without completing their program must first obtain a recommendation from their Advisory Committee. The Graduate Program Committee will then evaluate each application on a case-by-case basis, taking into account the performance of the student in graduate courses and research.
