The Tri-U congratulates nine students who became PhD Candidates during the month of October 2022. Successful completion of their comprehensive exams which includes a written and oral component moves them into the proposal writing stage for their research. This is an exciting milestone achievement.
During the first week of classes in the Tri-U, students are invited to orientation sessions that introduce them to varying aspects of their program.
Today, we honour Professor Alan Gordon. He passed away on July 25, 2022, almost one month ago, after a battle with pancreatic cancer.

The three universities in the Tri-University Graduate Program in History made seven exciting faculty appointments in the last year with a great diversity of research areas and expertise represented.
