The Faculty of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences provides advanced degree programs for both Master of Science and Doctor of Philosophy candidates. Students can pursue research in pharmaceutical science or pharmacy practice disciplines. Those interested in graduate studies should explore the Faculty of Pharmaceutical Sciences website to examine available resources, faculty research specialties, and the comprehensive Graduate Studies Handbook with program specifics. An MSc requires at least six credit hours of graduate coursework, though supplementary classes may be necessary based on specialization, prior academic background, and advisor recommendations. Additionally, candidates must complete and defend a thesis. Full-time students must maintain residency for at least two four-month terms at the University of Alberta.
