Career Development

​​With an MA degree, you can follow an academic or aÌýnon-academic career path. The same is true with the PhD degree. Please check our Alumni page for information about what previous graduates are up to. Also check McGill's MyPath program.

An academic career path after the MA often means applying to PhD programs to continue your research. After the PhD, this oftentimes begins with postdoctoral study, and also job searches. Non-academic paths after earning an MA or a PhD are numerous. For more information, start by scheduling a meeting withÌýMcGill's Career Planning Service (CaPS).
