Diploma programs are open to students in any relevant graduate program or to those who have a general interest in graduate-level work. For diplomas that are part of a graduate degree (concurrent), please contact the relevant graduate program office. For graduate diplomas that can be pursued on their own (stand-alone, direct entry), applications are submitted online. 

The Graduate Diploma in World Literature is designed to highlight and give official accreditation to students’ transnational, cross-cultural, and interdisciplinary literary expertise. Unique in Canada, this challenging graduate diploma can lead to prospective careers in a range of areas requiring a high level of cross-cultural literacy in this era of globalization, from government to the global creative industries.
