The Maîtrise en sciences interdisciplinaire individualisée, offered at Campus Saint-Jean in French, is a thesis-based graduate program organized around the Faculté Saint-Jean's major research axes, providing interdisciplinary scientific research training within Canada's Francophone minority context. Students choose a specialization combining disciplines from groupings such as Health Sciences, Biology, Chemistry and Psychology; Data Science, Mathematics, Statistics and Computer Science; or Earth Sciences, Physics and Environment, and complete the program in collaboration with the University of Alberta's College of Natural and Applied Sciences. Students complete a minimum of eighteen units of coursework, including two required courses (Foundations of Scientific Research, and Experimental Design and Statistical Analysis in Scientific Research) and elective courses set by the supervisor and supervisory committee, followed by the preparation and defence of a thesis. Applicants must submit a letter of intent, two letters of reference, and a letter of support from a potential supervisor.
