The recent global pandemic highlighted the ever-increasing need for evidence based / research driven decision making in critical health services. Professionals with an appreciation of the determinants of health, policy expertise, exceptional communication skills, and advanced qualitative and quantitative research knowledge will possess a distinct competitive advantage in a wide range of health-related disciplines.
The MAHSR - Professional stream program is an interdisciplinary graduate program aimed at developing and enhancing leadership abilities, professional skills, and research capabilities in the realm of health services, regardless of whether you have a background in the healthcare industry or research experience.
A unique collaborative venture with the Atlantic Regional Training Centre, course material is delivered online through exceptional faculty across four Canadian universities: Saint Mary’s University, University of Prince Edward Island, University of New Brunswick, and Memorial University of Newfoundland. Students in the Professional steam complete 8 courses and a practicum (or capstone project) through interactions with prominent decision makers in health services and develop their research skills and knowledge.
Our one-year program offers a fast track to your graduate degree in applied health services research. You'll immerse yourself in an intensive two-term course schedule, followed by a hands-on four-month residency or capstone project, culminating in your well-deserved graduation within three semesters.
The Master of Applied Health Services Research – Professional stream follows the general admission requirements and procedures of the Faculty of Graduate Studies and Research, as outlined in the Graduate Academic Calendar.
Note: Since the program is fully online, students in the MAHSR-P may not be eligible for Canadian study permits.
