Program details

Overview

This program leads to a Master of Science in Pharmacy, a graduate degree offered by the School of Pharmacy combining coursework with a research component, typically completed in about two years. Admission requires a recognized four-year Bachelor of Science degree with a minimum grade average of B+, roughly 75 percent, or its equivalent. The program pairs formal coursework in pharmacy-related subjects with an individual research project, giving students the chance to work closely with faculty on a defined research question within pharmaceutical sciences. It suits Bachelor of Science graduates, particularly those with a pharmacy or related science background, who want to build research skills and specialized knowledge in pharmacy beyond the undergraduate level, whether as preparation for a research career, further doctoral study, or advanced roles in the pharmaceutical sciences.

Application Details

Application Deadline: Memorial University's undergraduate application system opens one year ahead of each semester for the 2027 cycle: for Fall 2027 entry the portal opens 10 September 2026, the priority deadline (also the early-entrance-scholarship deadline) is 1 March 2027, the document deadline is 20 August 2027, and applications finally close 9 September 2027; Winter 2027 entry has a priority deadline of 1 October 2026 and closes 6 January 2027; Spring 2027 entry closes 11 May 2027 with a priority date of 1 February 2027. International applicants use the same direct application to Memorial and are only advised to apply at least 12 weeks before their intended semester starts; no fixed international closing date is published. Late domestic applications are still considered as time, resources and space permit, so admission is effectively rolling past the priority date up to the final close. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
