PHD Milestones

Milestones are critical pass/fail thresholds for the presentation and evaluation of the design research. Work for milestones #1 and #2 should advance concurrently and may be evaluated in any sequence during year two. Additional interim presentations and submissions may be required, depending on the nature of the design research and project objectives.

  1. Creative Project: The exact nature of this student-led design research project and its dissemination will be determined by the student in close conversation with the supervisor and advisory committee in view of the research questions, modalities and objectives. This milestone may take the form of an exhibition, installation, performance, colloquium, publication, etc., and is to be accompanied by a design research statement and appropriate written document. It may consist of a single event or a series. The public presentation shall be an active mode of advancing the research and serve as a forum for critical feedback from committee members, peers, faculty and the broader architectural community.

  2. Design Research Proposal / Candidacy Exam: This written document and oral defense, with appropriate visual and multimedia material, serves to ground, deepen and advance the creative project. It is to be completed before the end of the second year. See YSGS (PDF file)  Guidelines for Candidacy Examinations for Doctoral Programs: The written exam is designed to ascertain a candidate’s understanding of the basic theories, and recent developments in their area of study. This understanding must exhibit both articulate comprehension and critical exposition. The candidate must indicate the ways in which the proposed dissertation links with previous research in the area and advances knowledge in the field.

  3. Dissertation: A culminating written and illustrated study, including design research documentation, installations and events (as applicable), respecting YSGS Guidelines  (PDF file) Thesis, MRP, and Dissertation Submission Requirements. The dissertation is to be submitted and presented to the advisory committee at least six weeks in advance of the final defense and public presentation. The student, supervisor and advisory committee will define in advance the type and scope of the dissertation. Original creative work (such as drawings, models, installations, and events) must be permanently documented with appropriate media (video, photography, etc), and be appropriately credited and citable, listing all contributors and sources, with the doctoral candidate as the primary author. Irrespective of its form, the dissertation must demonstrate the PhD candidate's ability to carry out rigorous and significant independent work and to present clear and compelling results that make an original contribution to disciplinary knowledge.

 

Program at a Glance

The table below outlines a sample three-year PhD in Architecture program of study. Two seminars must be taken in the first year of study. Work for milestones #1 and #2 should advance concurrently and may be evaluated in any sequence during year two. Additional interim presentations and submissions may be required, depending on the nature of the design research and project objectives

Fall I: Master's Level Courses Including:

EI8001 – Biotechnology Start-Ups

Elective (Engineering Tracks)

Healthcare is one of the largest global markets and is undergoing rapid transformation due to unrelenting changes in the social, demographic and economic landscape. Global economic pressures are substantially impacting the healthcare market. With these global dynamics at play, opportunities exist for Canadian based companies with innovative technology platforms that enable the formation of disruptive healthcare business and delivery models. This course is designed to provide would-be entrepreneurs with the context and tools to seek venture capital investment in healthcare start-up businesses and to better understand the unique model of this sector and the specific challenges that one might expect. The focus will be on biotechnology and also include information on medical technologies as well as the emerging field of healthcare IT, particularly as they differ from biotech. Guest speakers with real-life experience in the sector will provide insight and guidance. Course participants will conduct detailed analysis of case studies and will be required to present a “pitch deck” on a start-up opportunity.

EI8002 – Energy Innovation & Entrepreneurship

Elective (Engineering Tracks)

Energy is a critical sector for Ontario’s economy, environment, and society: it is central to the climate change debate, fundamental to human welfare and essential to economic prosperity. Driven by innovation, the energy sector in Ontario and throughout the world is at a turning point, moving rapidly toward an electrified, low-carbon future. We will explore drivers for innovation in Ontario’s energy sector, the opportunities for new business, and the challenges of moving from the idea stage to the marketplace. Barriers and bridges to innovation and commercialization technological, financial, and regulatory will be explored through case studies, including lessons learned from guest lectures by business leaders in the Ontario energy sector.

EI8004 – Finding & Validating Business Opportunity for New Venture

Core MEIE Course (Mandatory)

Introduction to entrepreneurial processes and behaviour. Enables the student to distinguish between ideas and business value creation. Facilitates students finding and validating business opportunities for new venture. Teach how to conduct market research and intellectual property assessment for the development of their technology based business idea. Uses the market research data and intellectual property to determine the source of their sustained competitive advantage. End up with a team and a business opportunity to pursue.

EI8010A – Startup Feasibility Project

Project (Mandatory)

The supervised project is a major component of the MEIE program and work on the project commences at the start of the academic program and continues throughout the remaining duration of the program. In teams, students are expected to apply the tools and skills related to finding and evaluating technology-based business ideas, building a team that can seize the opportunity and deciding the technical and business feasibility of the business opportunity.

EI8006 – New Venture Business Strategy & Plan

Core MEIE Course (Mandatory)

This course covers the fundamentals of “taking the opportunity to the next level” which depend on the entrepreneur’s ability to communicate the opportunity concisely, in a way that will convince investors that the risk of investment is worth it. The lectures in this course will follow a process-based approach, in which students develop their ideas into business plans. The importance of writing an effective and concise business plan, as a foundation for the start-up cannot be underestimated. The business plan is not the foundation of a business idea. It is the outcome of a process of finding, screening, critically analyzing, recording and effectively presenting a business idea, and it utilizes many skills learned in other areas of this program. Business communication does not end with the business plan. This course will introduce students to the art of the elevator pitch and investor presentation. As in any presentation setting, the substance of the entrepreneur’s message shapes the perception of their audience. Both the elevator pitch and the investor presentation must demonstrate executive vision, by telling a convincing story that leaves an investor with a limited number of messages wanting to dig deeper. Students will prepare a supporting “investor deck” – to be used in conjunction with the investor presentation. Students will deliver their investor presentations to a panel of venture capitalists and technology entrepreneurs, who will provide immediate feedback.

 

EI8008 – Lean Start Up Customer Validation Practicum Course

Practicum (Mandatory)

Practicum courses designed to build student capacity to manage projects with critical time demands, regulatory issues and large growth potential.

This practicum will enable the students to shape the technology solution to be disruptive or sustainable market innovation. Facilitate the creation of technology proof-of-concept plan and the technology development processes to identify and assemble the key technical components. Facilitate testing of a proof-of-concept with lead customers to validate market product fit.

 

EI8011A – Go-To Market Project

Project (Mandatory)

The 8 months supervised project is a major component of the program and work on the project commences at the start of term 3 of the academic program and continues throughout the remaining duration of the program. It compromises approx. 270 hours of technology/design and development work to complete the proof-of-concept that meet customer’s requirements during the 3rd and 4th terms. The students will commence go-to-market activities in the 4th term. These activities will continue until the students sign up the first client.

The student will be assigned a project supervisor (PS), a technical mentor (TM) and a business mentor (BM), if appropriate, the business mentor will enable the students to make contact with the business and commercial community. The students will spend a substantial amount of their time working on their project in the Innovation Boost Zone (IBZ) or any other Zones within the Toronto Metropolitan University and with customers in the market place.

 

As the project has commercial exploitation potential, it is important that the original idea (background Intellectual Property (IP)) is documented clearly at the start of the project. It is also important that all students maintain an up-to-date record of the work they undertake both in the department or company lab and at the Zone. This will ensure that if the project becomes a business it will be possible to allocate a share of ownership to those who have contributed to the original idea. Issues of copyright, confidentiality and non-disclosure will be discussed and suitable arrangements agreed upon for your project.

There are two key deliverables from project:

  • A technical proof-of-concept: this represents a working prototype that incorporates all the key technology elements to demonstrate that a solution to the customer problem is available.
  • A go-to-market demonstration: this represents market collaterals, channel development and customer engagement execution plan. It is highly desirable that the students sign up their first paying customer.

 

Looking Ahead

EI8009 – Lean Start Up Customer Acquisition Practicum - Course

Practicum (Mandatory)

This practicum covers the fundamentals of “taking the technology solution” to market which depend on the entrepreneur’s ability to communicate the value proposition concisely, in a way that will convince customers (client) to want to acquire it. The lectures in this course will follow sales process-based approach, in which students develop their client sales proposal. The importance of writing an effective and concise sales plan, as a foundation for the go-to-market cannot be underestimated. The sales plan is the outcome of a process of prospecting, screening, critically analyzing, recording and effectively prioritizing lead customers. It utilizes many skills learned in other areas of this program. This course will introduce students to the art of selling to acquire your first client. Students will deliver a tactical operating plan for their new venture that describe their go-to-market and customer acquisition strategy. The students will make presentations to a panel of lead customers and technology entrepreneurs, who will provide immediate feedback.
