The Master's in Health Sciences Research (Maitrise recherche en sciences de la sante) is a 45-credit, thesis-based graduate program at Universite de Sherbrooke preparing students for independent research on human health, spanning medical studies, specialized medical training, nursing sciences, community health and rehabilitation. The 38-credit core covers research ethics, data analysis and methodology in health-sciences research, a research seminar, a supervised research activity and a thesis, complemented by up to 7 elective credits chosen from courses such as regression modelling, qualitative research, epidemiology and health-program evaluation, selected with the research supervisor. The program offers an integrated bachelor's-to-master's pathway from the Bachelor's in Pharmacology and the Bachelor's in Health Biochemistry. It is delivered on campus at the Campus de la sante in Sherbrooke, and at the Longueuil, Moncton and Saguenay joint campuses, under full-time or part-time regular study. The program admits students at the fall, winter and summer terms.
