The PhD in Law is designed to provide advanced training for outstanding graduate students who have already obtained a Master of Laws (LLM) degree or its equivalent. The PhD is a research-intensive degree that prepares graduates for opportunities in law teaching, legal research, policy development, public and governmental service, and the practice of law.

The degree requirements include course work, comprehensive exams, a dissertation proposal and defence, a dissertation, and an oral dissertation exam. Working closely with a supervising faculty member, a student in the PhD program is expected to produce a book-length piece of original legal scholarship and of publishable quality.

The PhD provides an opportunity for focused study in a chosen field of law. It does not, of itself, qualify a holder for entry to the legal profession in British Columbia or any other certification for legal practice.

Scholarships & awards (merit-based funding)

All applicants are encouraged to review the awards listing to identify potential opportunities to fund their graduate education. The database lists merit-based scholarships and awards and allows for filtering by various criteria, such as domestic vs. international or degree level.

Graduate Research Assistantships (GRA)

Many professors are able to provide Research Assistantships (GRA) from their research grants to support full-time graduate students studying under their supervision. The duties constitute part of the student's graduate degree requirements. A Graduate Research Assistantship is considered a form of fellowship for a period of graduate study and is therefore not covered by a collective agreement. Stipends vary widely, and are dependent on the field of study and the type of research grant from which the assistantship is being funded.

Graduate Teaching Assistantships (GTA)

Graduate programs may have Teaching Assistantships available for registered full-time graduate students. Full teaching assistantships involve 12 hours work per week in preparation, lecturing, or laboratory instruction although many graduate programs offer partial TA appointments at less than 12 hours per week. Teaching assistantship rates are set by collective bargaining between the University and the Teaching Assistants' Union .

Graduate Academic Assistantships (GAA)

Academic Assistantships are employment opportunities to perform work that is relevant to the university or to an individual faculty member, but not to support the student’s graduate research and thesis. Wages are considered regular earnings and when paid monthly, include vacation pay.

Financial aid (need-based funding)

Canadian and US applicants may qualify for governmental loans to finance their studies. Please review eligibility and types of loans .

All students may be able to access private sector or bank loans.

Foreign government scholarships

Many foreign governments provide support to their citizens in pursuing education abroad. International applicants should check the various governmental resources in their home country, such as the Department of Education, for available scholarships.

Working while studying

The possibility to pursue work to supplement income may depend on the demands the program has on students. It should be carefully weighed if work leads to prolonged program durations or whether work placements can be meaningfully embedded into a program.

International students enrolled as full-time students with a valid study permit can work on campus for unlimited hours and work off-campus for no more than 20 hours a week.

A good starting point to explore student jobs is the UBC Work Learn program or a Co-Op placement .

Tax credits and RRSP withdrawals

Students with taxable income in Canada may be able to claim federal or provincial tax credits.

Canadian residents with RRSP accounts may be able to use the Lifelong Learning Plan (LLP) which allows students to withdraw amounts from their registered retirement savings plan (RRSPs) to finance full-time training or education for themselves or their partner.

Please review Filing taxes in Canada on the student services website for more information.

Cost Estimator

Applicants have access to the cost estimator to develop a financial plan that takes into account various income sources and expenses.

• JD/PhD (Philosophy)

Director: Assistant Dean Sara Faherty ( sara.faherty@utoronto.ca )

Requirements

The Combined JD/PhD (Philosophy) Program enables students to pursue a profound investigation of the complex issues that lie at the intersection between law and philosophy.

The program allows students to complete the two degrees one year faster than if they were pursued separately. At the end of that period, the student will have completed the JD degree and reached the dissertation stage of the PhD in philosophy.

Admission to the PhD program requires either a four-year bachelor's degree or a Master's degree in philosophy, from a recognized university. A student seeking admission on the basis of a four-year bachelor's degree must have completed at least six full courses in philosophy (twelve semester courses), with minimum average grades of B+ in the applicants' overall program and A- in the philosophy courses. A student seeking admission on the basis of a master's degree in philosophy must have an average grade of at least an A- in that program. 

• In the first year of the program students complete all the first year courses at the Faculty of Law.
• In the second and third years of the program, the Director must approve all courses* with the following minimum requirements.
• Successfully complete 48** credits at the Faculty of Law AND
• Successfully complete 4 half-courses in philosophy at 2 credits each AND
• Satisfy the compulsory requirements of the upper years of the JD including the moot, a perspective course, and an International/Comparative/Transnational Perspective (ICT) course - see JD Degree Requirements in the Academic Handbook for details.
• Courses taken during the second and third year count towards the credit requirement at the Faculty of Law.

 * In order to complete the requirements of the 3 year JD program, the student must have a minimum of 48 law credits in the second and third year of the program PLUS the 4 half-courses in Philosophy. ** Students who intend to complete their JD one year later (i.e. year 4) must do a minimum of 38 law credits in years 2 and 3 and the remaining 10 law credits in year 4. This may apply to students who decide to do more philosophy graduate courses in Year 2 and Year 3 than the required four half courses.

3.    In the fourth year of the program:

• Students must complete qualifying year requirements in philosophy and meet the research tool requirement. 
• Dissertation as required by the Department of Philosophy and the School of Graduate Studies.

Note: Notwithstanding the Department of Philosophy's course selection process, students must meet the Faculty of Law course selection deadline. Students must submit their proposed course selections for years two and three of the program to the Director prior to the applicable course selection deadlines in each year and in each Faculty. Any changes must also be approved by the Director.

Back to Top  

Those interested in the combined program must obtain separate admission to both the PhD program in philosophy and the JD program. The program is designed for students who are already qualified to enter the PhD in philosophy as well as the JD program, but in limited cases candidates who have completed a master's program in another discipline may be considered.

To apply to the JD Program at the Faculty of Law, see Application Procedure for the JD Program  on this Web site. For more information about this combined program, contact the:

Funding and Fees

Osgoode offers a significant number of entrance and continuing scholarship funds, as well as conference funding to support our graduate students during their studies. In addition to the funding packages described below, York University offers competitive tuition rates for domestic graduate students in both the LLM and PhD programs. We advise students comparing the cost of graduate studies at Osgoode Hall to consider tuition fees alongside available funding packages.

York has some of the lowest tuition fees for domestic graduate students. At the graduate level, all students are required to maintain continuous registration in three terms (fall, winter and summer) throughout their time in the program. Fees are paid per term, and there are three terms in a year.

Fees have not yet been set for the 2024-25 academic year. As reference, the fees for 2023-24, including both tuition and supplementary fees are as follows:

• Domestic full-time PhD and LLM: $1,727.54 per term
• International full-time LLM: $6,567.03 per term
• International full-time PhD: $6,292.03 per term

Please note that we are only able to accept a limited number of international students each year.

See the Student Financial Services page for more information on current fees.

Funding Packages

All domestic applicants admitted to our Research LLM and PhD programs receive significant funding. Funding is contingent on continuous registration as a full-time student, continued satisfactory academic performance and, for doctoral students, fulfillment of any funding-related employment obligations. While some scholarships are treated as part of the base funding package, others may be paid on top of the minimum amount.

Research LLM Students

• Domestic Research LLM students receive approximately $10,000 (minimum) for the year of the degree.
• International Research LLM students receive approximately $19,256 (minimum) for the year of the degree. We are only able to accept a limited number of international students each year; funding is limited and highly competitive.

PhD Students

Doctoral funding packages are composed of York Graduate Fellowships and some combination of teaching assistantships, graduate assistantships, research assistantships, scholarships and awards. Doctoral students are ordinarily expected to hold a Teaching Assistant (TA) position as a condition of their funding. Osgoode hires TAs for two JD courses: Legal Process and Ethical Lawyering in a Global Community. York University also engages graduate students in law to serve as TAs for programs in Criminology, Law and Society, Philosophy and Business.

• Domestic students receive approximately $24,267/year (minimum) in the first year of the PhD program. A similar level of funding is available in subsequent years of the program, contingent on full-time registration.
• International students receive approximately $36,218/year (minimum) in the first year of the PhD program. A similar level of funding is available in subsequent years of the program, contingent on full-time registration.

Research Assistantships

Research Assistantship positions provide students with paid positions that are directly related to their research to help further develop research skills and experience. Positions may be available to incoming students, current students, or both.

Prospective and current students should view the list of research-related work positions for students at Osgoode to find out what is currently available.

Graduate students may also view the list of research-related contract positions that are attached to either York’s research centres or major research projects within the Office of the Vice-President Research & Innovation.

Additional Funding

In addition to core funding packages that accompany admission to our graduate programs, York University’s Faculty of Graduate Studies outlines numerous funding sources – both internal and external – and Osgoode offers donor-funded awards .

Osgoode Scholarships and Fellowships

Osgoode’s graduate program offers donor-funded scholarships to some students based on merit and financial need. These funding offers are made on the basis of students’ application packages; most awards require no separate application. View the complete list of donor-funded awards open to Osgoode graduate students. This list includes fellowships offered by Osgoode’s Nathanson Centre on Transnational Human Rights, Crime and Security.

External Scholarships

Applicants should explore funding available from external agencies – both prior to enrolment and as continuing students. The Faculty of Graduate Studies offers information about external awards, including those from the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada (SSHRC) and the Province of Ontario Graduate Scholarships (OGS).

Osgoode students have had considerable success in applying for major graduate scholarships, such as the Ontario Graduate Scholarships, the Ontario Trillium Scholarships and those awarded by SSHRC and the Trudeau Foundation. The Graduate Program Office and York’s Faculty of Graduate Studies provide support to continuing students in drafting, revising and improving applications for these awards. We are proud that each year many of our students are awarded major scholarships by external agencies.

Financial Awards and Scholarship Competitions for International Students

Osgoode’s Research Graduate Program and the Faculty of Graduate Studies have some scholarship funding available for international students. The Faculty of Graduate Studies lists scholarships and awards available to international students. Students can also contact the Research Graduate Program office for more information. In addition, applicants may wish to explore funding opportunities offered by their home country or through agreements between Canada and their home country.

Conference Funding

The Graduate Program in Law supports the intellectual engagement of our students in many ways, including by providing funding for graduate students to present and attend a number of legal education conferences. Students are notified as funding opportunities become available throughout the year.

It is known for its quality education and employability, which is no wonder why more than 1 lakh Indian students choose to go to Canada for higher education every year. A PhD Degree in Canada is more affordable in comparison to that in popular study destinations like the UK or the US . More than 90 universities in Canada offer PhD Programs to international students, and it takes around 3-6 years to complete. It becomes a lot easier for Indian students to manage their expenses if they receive any kind of scholarship .
