| Description | HRM at the PhD level aims to prepare students for independent scholarly work that results in the creation of new knowledge relevant to enhancing the health of Canadians. Graduates possess advanced methodological skills that enable them to engage in a broad range of research investigations relevant to applied clinical and/or health systems issues. Program objectives are achieved through a combination of formal course work, a comprehensive examination, close interaction and collaboration with faculty members in different research environments, and independent research leading to a thesis. In their dissertation work, students undertake scholarly inquiry with particular emphasis on methodologic issues. | | |
