The University of Toronto Mississauga (UTM) offers a number of combined degree programs that allow you to be registered in two degrees (one undergraduate and one graduate) at the same time. In this way, you can complete the requirements for both degrees in a manner that provides benefits that would not be available to students registering in each degree program independently.
Generally speaking, students will be in their undergraduate program(s) of choice during their first three years of studies. Combined degree programs are not directly available for high school or transfer students. Typically in your third year at UTM, you will apply to the combined degree program and begin taking courses at the graduate level as early as fourth year. Most combined degree programs are scheduled to be completed in 5-6 years. To learn more, visit the School of Graduate Studies' program pages listed below for the options you're interested in.
