Program details
Overview
Pathology (MSc) is a thesis-based graduate program in Dalhousie University's Department of Pathology, part of the Faculty of Medicine, delivered in person over two years or longer. Students complete original research under the supervision of a confirmed faculty member and must write and defend a thesis; the program does not offer course-based, practicum, internship, or study-abroad options. A confirmed research supervisor in the department must be arranged before a student can be admitted. Dalhousie admits students to the program each September, January, and May, with separate application deadlines for Canadian and international applicants. Entry normally requires an honours undergraduate degree or equivalent in a relevant discipline, with a minimum cumulative GPA of 3.7 and a minimum average of A- in the applicant's final year of study; graduates holding a medical degree are also eligible to apply. International applicants must meet the Faculty of Graduate Studies' English-language proficiency requirements where applicable.
