Graduation and Beyond
As you near the end of your undergraduate studies at TMU, we can offer guidance, support and services to help you navigate the process and plan your next steps and career path.
Graduation & Convocation
Check early to ensure you’re meeting all the requirements to complete your degree. Talk with your department about program-specific questions. You can also consult the curriculum advising office for general information such as eligibility to graduate or curriculum exceptions.
Did you know? Whether or not you attend the convocation ceremony, you must apply to graduate. Visit the convocation website for information on how to prepare, what happens during the ceremony, and common FAQs.
Options After Graduation
Get help to plan your career path well before you graduate at the Career & Co-op Centre. After completing your undergraduate degree, many possible paths may open up before you:
Enter the Workforce
A bachelor’s degree is often a minimum qualification for entry-level positions in STEM fields. Graduates may land jobs in sectors such as technology, healthcare, business or government. Some work in discipline-specific roles, such as research assisting. Others work in auxiliary roles such as science communications, project management or business development.
Continue Your Studies
As job markets become increasingly competitive, you may gain an edge by furthering your education in STEM through Faculty of Science graduate programs leading to master’s and PhD degrees. A graduate degree could lead to more advanced-level work roles or be the path towards a career path in academia or specialized research. Many of our graduates have also successfully gained entrance into professional schools such as medicine, pharmacy, dentistry, law, teaching or discipline-related specializations.
