Program details
Overview
The Master of Toxicology at the University of Guelph is a one-year, course-based graduate programme integrating analytical chemistry, environmental science, and biomedical toxicology, and is described as the first course-based master's programme in toxicology in Canada. The curriculum emphasizes hands-on laboratory training, use of modern analytical instrumentation, and regulatory-relevant coursework, without a research project requirement. Delivery combines mandatory in-person laboratory sessions with asynchronous and synchronous online coursework. Admission requires a four-year science or engineering degree with a minimum 73% average in the final two years of study, one full academic year of general chemistry at the first-year level or equivalent, and at least one course each in organic chemistry, analytical chemistry, and biochemistry. Applicants who do not fully meet the coursework requirements may be considered based on relevant work experience. The programme admits students in the Fall term only, with separate deadlines for domestic and international applicants.
