Overview

The Department of Health Sciences offers an on-campus, thesis-based, Master of Health Sciences (MHSc) program that is designed to provide students with the knowledge and skill to undertake a supervised research study in a relevant area of concern, within the broad definition of health. Completion of specific required courses, followed by selection of relevant elective courses, allows students to develop both breadth and depth in an area of research interest. Although they may choose to complete research studies using quantitative, qualitative, or mixed-method approaches, they are required to demonstrate beginning competence in both quantitative and qualitative methods. The structure of the program allows them to complete elective courses in research methods and/or in a discipline-based area of interest. Preference is given to applicants who have successfully completed research methods courses (e.g., statistics, qualitative inquiry, epidemiology, research methods). Intended to provide an overview and introduction to the fundamentals of epidemiology for students of public health or public health workers involved in any aspect of public health. Topics include measures of health status, risk evaluation, and epidemiological study design including: descriptive approaches; validity issues; critical appraisal; sources of data; and data collection management.
