This 90-credit research PhD (Philosophiae Doctor), troisieme cycle, offered by the Universite de Sherbrooke in extension at UQAT (concentration-free pathway only), trains students to conduct human-centred research across preventive, evaluative and curative health sciences, in areas such as experimental and clinical pain, epidemiology, primary care, health-education practices and sexual health, through an interdisciplinary approach spanning multiple health-science sectors. The common core comprises 73 required credits (an ethics-of-health-research seminar, a 16-credit research activity, a research seminar, a comprehensive exam and a 39-credit thesis), 8 credits chosen from option activities such as multivariate data-analysis methods, data-collection tool development, qualitative research or complex care-plan design, and up to 9 further optional or elective credits. Admission requires a master's degree (2nd cycle) in health sciences or a related discipline, obtained with a cumulative average of at least 3.0 on a 4.3 scale, sufficient knowledge of French, and, for candidates who studied entirely in another language, a TFI test score of at least 860/990; applicants must propose a research project directed by a qualified professor.
