Program details

Overview

This program is a research doctorate (Ph.D.) in Pharmacology at the Universite de Sherbrooke, based jointly on the university's Health Sciences campus in Sherbrooke and its Saguenay campus, with admission in the fall, winter, and summer terms. The 90-credit, full-time curriculum gives candidates a comprehensive overview of their area of specialization in pharmacology while broadening their scientific knowledge of related fields, and trains them to independently follow developments in their specialty. A substantial part of the program is devoted to a general (comprehensive) examination, a research seminar, and the doctoral thesis, through which students develop critical judgment and the ability to integrate and synthesize knowledge by analyzing and writing scientific manuscripts. Students also build skills in written and oral communication and interpersonal relations, and are trained to work independently on research and, eventually, teaching responsibilities. The program is designed to develop researchers capable of contributing new scientific or technological knowledge and of adapting to changes over the course of their careers.
