The Master of Science (M.Sc.) in Family Medicine (Thesis) offered by the Department of Family Medicine in the Faculty of Medicine & Health Sciences is a research-intensive program that emphasizes collaborative and tailored learning opportunities. The program's objective is to equip students with skills in visionary thinking, critical reading, and the presentation of complex ideas to either continue their studies or pursue professional opportunities.

The program may also be taken as one of the follow options:

Global Health option: emphasizes the foundational values of global primary health care including health equity, cultural safety, social participation in health, and integrated, whole-person care over the life-span. Topics include primary health care policy and practice, decolonizing approaches, program management, social determinants of health and heath equity, and healthcare delivery innovations. The thesis must focus on an international or Canadian global health issue.

Medical Education option: is designed to provide research training to family physicians, and exceptionally other health professionals and other students interested in family medicine education research. This option has very close ties to the Family Medicine Educational Research Group (FMER), which integrates family medicine researchers deeply committed to the development of the family medicine education field of inquiry.

Keywords: primary care, global health, medical education, quantitative, qualitative, and mixed research methods, participatory research, Indigenous health, Inuit health, health services and policy research.
