The Doctorat en sciences infirmieres is a PhD-level program preparing nurses for independent research careers in the discipline. Students choose one of three options: Care and Health, Nursing Services Administration, or Nursing Education, each building advanced critical-thinking skills, research autonomy and disciplinary leadership. The curriculum combines an epistemological foundation in nursing science with a self-directed research project, and offers opportunities for international study terms and collaborative work with clinical partners. The minimum length of study is six semesters (two years) full-time, leading to a doctoral (PhD) credential. Admission requires a valid nursing licence from the relevant professional order and formal agreement from a faculty member to supervise the student's research before an application can be submitted. Classes run during the day in a full-time format with a personalized, small-group approach. The program begins in the fall term.
