Ottawa-Carleton Joint Program
Established in 1981, the Ottawa-Carleton Chemistry Institute (OCCI) combines the research strengths of the University of Ottawa and Carleton University. The institute offers graduate programs leading to the master’s (MSc) and doctoral (PhD) degrees in Chemistry.
Research facilities are shared between the two campuses. Students have access to the professors, courses and facilities at both universities; however, they must enroll at the “home university” of the thesis supervisor.
The Institute is a participating unit in the collaborative program in science, society and policy at the master’s level and in chemical and environmental toxicology at the master’s and doctoral levels.
