Rehabilitation Science (MSc)

McMaster University's Master of Science in Rehabilitation Science develops students' knowledge and appraisal skills relevant to the field, with a focus on applying theory, research design, and analysis methods to rehabilitation-related questions. The program is offered through both thesis-based and course-based options, available on a full-time or part-time basis. Admission requires a four-year undergraduate degree in a health profession or another relevant program. Students in the thesis stream typically begin their studies in January or September, while those in the course-based stream begin in September. Graduates are equipped with research and analytical skills relevant to rehabilitation science, preparing them for further doctoral study or for research, clinical, and leadership roles in rehabilitation and health care settings.
