What degree would I get at the end of the CIHR Bioinformatics Training Program for Health Research?
You can select one of two possible endpoints for your studies: • M.Sc. • Ph.D. The specific degree that you obtain will depend on the university to which you are admitted, and the particular faculty within that university to which you apply. We are currently affiliated with the following universities and departments: • Simon Fraser University (SFU) • Department of Molecular Biology and Biochemistry • School of Computing Science • University of British Columbia (UBC) • Bioinformatics Graduate Program The specific degree you would receive would be subject to the rules of each particular department. For instance, from SFU’s School of Computing Science, you might receive a M.Sc. in Computing Science with a “specialty” in bioinformatics. Currently, SFU is initiating the process of allowing students in this program to have the flexibility to graduate with either a degree in “Computing Science”, “Bioinformatics” or “Molecular Biology and Biochemistry” – this is subject to senate approval.
