Overview
During the Pharmacology program of University of Toronto students are expected to undertake self-directed study and demonstrate proficiency in pharmacological principles throughout the course of the program. They are able to engage in one of two formats of study: 1) thesis-based study or 2) course-based study in the field of Applied Clinical Pharmacology.
In the thesis-based study, students are expected to think critically about scientific issues and develop a knowledge base in pharmacology while formulating hypotheses in a specific area of pharmacological research. They will test their hypotheses through active research and present their investigations in a thesis.
In the course-based Applied Clinical Pharmacology field, students will engage in research and hands-on training in academic, commercial, health care, and government settings. Courses will feature a breadth of fundamental and applied pharmacology topics with emphasis on translational research.
The MSc program can be taken on a full-time or part-time basis.
