M.Sc. or Ph.D. in Experimental Medicine
Candidates who hold only an undergraduate degree in the medical and allied sciences (B.Sc. degree or an M.D. degree), must apply to the M.Sc. program, unless they have an undergraduate CGPA of 3.5 or more out of a possible 4.0, in which case they may apply for direct entry into the Ph.D. program. Candidates who already hold an M.Sc. apply directly to the Ph.D. program.
Admission is based on an evaluation by the Admissions Committee, which looks for evidence of high academic achievement, and on acceptance by a research director. All students must be financially supported either by their supervisor or through studentships or fellowships.
In addition to the documentation currently required by Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies, the student must submit a Research Project Proposal Form, a 1鈥2 page document outlining the M.Sc. or Ph.D. project and a Confirmation of Supervision form.
M.Sc. (Bioethics Option)
Admission to the master's specialization in Bioethics, from the base discipline of Medicine, is limited to students having degrees in Medicine, Nursing, or Physical and Occupational Therapy, as well as any other professional health training degree. Students who do not fit these criteria may be considered for admission on an individual basis.
For requirements, application deadlines, and further information regarding this program, please refer to the Bioethics entry or visit the Master's Specialization in Bioethics website.
M.Sc. or Ph.D. (Environment Option)
Although the requirements and application deadlines remain the same as the M.Sc. and Ph.D., applicants wishing to apply to the Environment Option must submit additional documents that constitute their application to both the Division of Experimental Medicine and the Bieler School of Environment. Further information can be found on the mcgill.ca/environment/envroption.
Students in the M.Sc. in Experimental Medicine may choose to transfer to the Environment Option; interested students should refer to the departmental website or contact the Student Affairs Office.
