The Doctor of Philosophy in Health Sciences at the University of Saskatchewan is a thesis-based program for students conducting research within any clinical department in the College of Medicine or the School of Physical Therapy. Research projects primarily investigate translational or clinical aspects of human disease, health, and healthy living, and may also include biomedical research with clinical translation. The program is open to all departments within the College of Medicine and offers centrally managed training in research skills, attitudes, and knowledge relevant to any life or health science graduate. Applicants must secure a College of Medicine faculty supervisor with funding for the proposed project before applying. The program has an expected length of four years, is delivered in person, and admits students through a single formal intake each year coinciding with the College of Medicine's major scholarship and award deadlines, beginning in the fall term.
