How to apply

The PhD Natural Resource and Environmental Management program has only one application deadline per year and applications are accepted for September entry only. Applications must be completed online and include several parts:

• $100 application fee (non-refundable)
• Transcripts from previous institutions

Statement of intent

• Publication/writing sample
• Research proposal (optional, can be completed after student is admitted into the program)
• Letter from your advisor, indicating that they are willing to supervise your work. One letter of support should be sent from the faculty member who is willing to supervise the prospective student's PhD program. It should include a confirmation from the faculty member to supervise the student as well as a confirmation of funding the student during the first year of the student's PhD program. This letter will be provided by the faculty member to the student who will upload it as part of their application.
• Three letters of recommendation. Two letters of reference from academics who are familiar with the applicant's previous studies are required. An applicant may submit one further reference from a referee familiar with the applicant's professional work. Please note that the reference letters should not be provided by the potential supervisor.

The statement of intent should be between one and two pages and will briefly describe your intended research project, including your previous research or experience, the proposed topic, preferred methods and potential contributions.

All proposals, statements of intents, cover letters, and other documentation for the application must be written by the applicant. Similarly, writing samples must be written by the applicant; do not include submissions co-authored with other authors. Submissions that are flagged by AI-detection software as being likely to be written by AI language models such as ChatGPT may be rejected by the admissions committee.

Letters written in the format of a research proposal are strongly preferred. Applicants are encouraged to consult the graduate scholarship application instructions of their appropriate Tricouncil Agency ( NSERC , SSHRC , CIHR ) for guidance.

Research proposal

Students will not necessarily be required to develop a detailed PhD proposal or select their advisory committee prior to entering the program. Delaying creating a research proposal allows students more leeway when initially planning their PhD program.

Finding an advisor

PhD in Environmental Sustainability

The goal of the PhD in Environmental Sustainability is to train leaders and professionals with the skills to develop, analyze and empirically assess policies and institutions that address the multiple challenges associated with the transition to sustainability. You will learn to consider environmental problems from the perspective of various disciplines (with an emphasis on science, law, economics and policy), all of which are critical to developing, implementing and evaluating solutions to environmental problems.

You will develop a strong understanding of the complexity of environmental sustainability problems, a critical awareness of the broad range of contributing factors and the methodological and communication skills you need to develop and share potential solutions.

You  must submit  these documents to complete your application:

Letter of intention

Provide an overview of your academic interests and career goals, and explain why you want to pursue this program. Describe your relevant studies or experience, and explain anything unusual in your academic history.

If your undergraduate degree is in something unrelated to environmental sustainability, indicate what background, experience or motivation you will bring to our program.

Recommendation letters

We require two (2) academic letters of recommendation. They must come from qualified academic scholars who can attest to and demonstrate your potential for graduate-level study or research.

The information about the individuals providing letters of recommendation is entered in your uoZone account, the student portal. You will receive an e-mail, with instructions,  after  your submit your OUAC application.

• Let the individuals know that the University of Ottawa’s letter of recommendation process is done online and is entirely confidential. They will receive a link by email to the secure online system.
• It is helpful to provide the individuals with a deadline in order to ensure they submit their letters of recommendation before the application deadline. Your application will not be considered complete ( and thus not evaluated ) until all your letters of recommendation are received.
• Letters of recommendation must be in English or French.
• We do not accept letters of recommendation from family members, friends, students, former or current classmates, employees or teaching assistants.
• It’s best to provide academic or work email addresses for those providing letters of recommendation. Email address from Hotmail, Gmail, Yahoo, etc. are discouraged.

Statement of Research Interests

The Statement of Research Interests shows your understanding of environmental sustainability issues, and your ability to describe the research you expect to conduct. It also helps to match you with a suitable supervisor, or to confirm that a supervisor you have contacted is right for you.

We understand that if you are admitted, your research area may change due to further research and guidance from your supervisor.

Your Statement of Research Interests should be no more than 1,000 words. It should identify an area of research in environmental sustainability that spans more than one discipline/knowledge area and has potential policy relevance.

Ensure that your statement is well written and structured. It should address the following, using sub-headings for each section (the word counts for each section are offered as guidelines only).

• Research area:   The area of research that interests you, including the problem you wish to address. (300 words) 
• Research question/hypothesis:  One or more research questions you wish to examine. Narrow your scope enough that your project can be completed. A research question like “What is the impact of climate change on Africa?” is too broad, whereas a question like “How does over-exploitation of groundwater in Africa affect girls’ attendance at school?” is clearly defined and possible to answer well. (100 words)
• Research methodology:  How you propose to go about answering your research question, with a focus on the methodological approach. (250 words)
• Relevant experience:  How your previous studies and/or your professional or community experience will help you address your proposed area of research. (150 words)
• Relevance:  How your research will improve the current state of knowledge in the proposed area, and its potential policy relevance. (200 words)

You may want to consult some of the many texts about choosing research and research methods. Two examples for introductory empirical economics and public policy are:

• Wooldridge, J.M.  Introductory Econometrics . 4th ed. South-Western, 2009. (chapter 19)
• Weimer, D. and Vining, A.  Policy Analysis: Concepts and Practice . 5th ed. Longman, 2010.   (chapters 1, 9, 14, 15)

Letter of Approval from your potential Supervisor 

A written statement from your potential uOttawa supervisor confirming their availability to act as your thesis supervisor.

An updated CV with your academic, professional and volunteer experience in environmental sustainability.

Submission of documents 

Once you have submitted your application and it has been transferred to uOttawa’s servers, you will receive an email with instructions on how to access uoZone, where you will be able to upload your documents.

You must upload a full set of documents for each program you are applying to through uoZone, the student portal.

The Institute for Resources, Environment and Sustainability (IRES) at the University of British Columbia (UBC) is a problem-focused and curiosity-driven interdisciplinary research institute and graduate program, with interest and expertise in a wide range of topics under the realm of environment and sustainability. Our mission is to foster sustainable futures through integrated research and learning about the linkages among human and natural systems, and to support decision making from local to global scales. More often than not, we achieve this through collaborations across students and faculty in a manner that recognizes our collective skills, intellectual histories and methodological approaches, and yet encourages our interdependencies as we consider real world problems.

For specific program requirements, please refer to the departmental program website

What makes the program unique?

Over fifty percent of our core faculty are Canada Research Chairs and faculty mentoring has led to a high success rate of our students winning major fellowships and scholarships. There are multi-year funding packages offered for top applicants to the RES program. RES has over 400 alumni since the graduate program started in 1994.

I explored many options with respect to doctoral studies and ultimately decided on UBC because of the close alignment of my interests and the Institute of Resources, Environment and Sustainability, and more specifically the research focus of my supervisor.

Tuition & Financial Support

Financial support.

Applicants to UBC have access to a variety of funding options, including merit-based (i.e. based on your academic performance) and need-based (i.e. based on your financial situation) opportunities.

Program Funding Packages

All full-time students who begin a UBC-Vancouver PhD program in September 2024 or later will be guaranteed a minimum funding package of $24,000 for each of the first four years of their PhD. This guaranteed minimum doctoral funding package may consist of any combination of internal or external awards, teaching-related work (TA), Research assistantships (RA), and Graduate Academic Assistantships (GAA).

Additional funding opportunities for PhD applicants may come from UBC’s Four Year Doctoral Fellowship (4YF) : an $18,200 stipend plus full tuition coverage per year, for four consecutive years.

RES students have also been highly successful in receiving support from the most prestigious funding agencies. Many of our students are Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC)  or Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council (NSERC)   recipients, and in recent years we have seen our students receive both Vanier  Canada Graduate Scholarships  and the Trudeau Foundation Doctoral Scholarship , the most highly-regarded scholarships in Canada. You can review a detailed list of the most commonly applied to scholarships on our website.

In addition to external scholarships and funding options noted above, RES typically distributes one-time entrance awards to the majority of incoming students. The amount of these awards varies year to year, however over the last three years the awards have been in the range of $3000-$5000.

It is important for applicants to the RES program to confirm the details of any funding package that may be available to them prior to accepting an offer of admission to the program.

Average Funding

• 8 students received Teaching Assistantships. Average TA funding based on 8 students was $6,018.
• 19 students received Research Assistantships. Average RA funding based on 19 students was $17,172.
• 12 students received Academic Assistantships. Average AA funding based on 12 students was $4,726.
• 32 students received internal awards. Average internal award funding based on 32 students was $13,925.

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.

PHD water sanitation and hygiene

In 2015 it was estimated that almost a third of the global population lacked access to improved sanitation facilities with almost a billion-people having no access to any sanitation facilities resulting in open defecation [1]. Additionally, around 10% of the global population lack access to an improved source of drinking water [2]. Access to these essential services has been mandated by the Universal Declaration of Human rights for over 70 years [3] and yet thousands still suffer the adverse health effects [4].

The global Sustainable Development Goals (SDG’S) provides the framework with which to achieve universal access to Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WaSH) services by 2030 [5]. Whilst huge progress is being made, spurred on by support from philanthropy such as the Gates Foundation [6] the biggest gains are being seen in urban environments or where installing engineered infrastructure is relatively simple.

Not all people live in contexts where traditional WaSH engineering infrastructure and services are appropriate. These ‘challenging environments’ have difficult geographical and/or geological conditions which may include high groundwater, rocky ground, flood affected areas or even housing on lakes. In Cambodia it is estimated that around 27% of the population (over 4 million people) live in challenging environments [6]. With so many people living in challenging environments and only 10 years remaining to achieve the SDG’s there is a pressing need to better understand how WaSH services can be implemented and adopted by communities living in challenging environments.

In this project, it is expected that the researcher will develop standards and guiding principles for the provision of WaSH services in challenging environments, focused on the Asia-Pacific region particularly Cambodia. Using a discovery based methodology including interviews, participatory observation and strengths mapping the researcher will investigate and overcome current barriers to WaSH services which may include technology, governance and funding.

The engineering NGO Engineers Without Borders Australia (EWB) has an established challenging environments program based in Cambodia and Vanuatu [8]. This research project will directly support the work of EWB who will act as the industry partner. It is expected that extensive fieldwork will be conducted in Cambodia and or Vanuatu for extended periods of time supported by EWB in country.

Graduate students or early to mid-career professionals who would like to deepen their research credentials and their understanding of environmental management, might benefit from enrolling in an  Environmental Management PhD program . In general, a  Doctorate in Environmental Management​   program will focus on examining the mechanisms and interconnections found within and among components of environmental systems such as the atmosphere, hydrosphere, geosphere, and biosphere and with associated political, legal, social, and economic systems.

PhD programs in Environmental Management offer extensive field and laboratory work allowing students exposure to current environmental research, and environmental management issues. Central to Environmental Management PhD programs is a dissertation that entails extensive original research that generates new ideas and new data that are prepared for publication in appropriate national/international peer reviewed journals.

Graduates of the program may be prepared to enter post-doctoral research in the field, or potentially work in academic institutions, government agencies, profit or non-profit organizations, private sectors, and other businesses that deal with the environment, sustainability, and restoration issues.

How to Select a Doctorate in Environmental Management Program in Canada

Since the nature of Doctorate level study in Environmental Management is research and fieldwork intensive, students are advised to choose a program that allows them to explore an area that they are passionate about.

Use the search tools on GradSchools.com to help you review different options. If location is a factor in your decision, initiate a search by location, using the city, state, or country tabs.

Or, if program format is key, search by Campus, Hybrid or Online Environmental Management PhD programs. Campus programs offer the most interaction, as well as use of libraries, laboratories and other facilities or technology that is available. Hybrid programs combine distance-learning with campus courses so students get the access to the school’s amenities, as well as the convenience of studying when their schedule permits. Online programs might benefit someone who is quite self-motivated and cannot commute or configure their life around campus classes. In this event, it is advisable to see what type of laboratory work is involved and whether you have access to the resources you need.

Some of the options might include PhD in Resource Management, PhD in Wildlife and Environmental Management, PhD in Environmental management, or PhD in Fisheries and Aquaculture. Request information from each school so you can compare tuition, faculty, admissions procedures and other valuable details that may vary between universities.
