Reach your full
potential
Training the next generation of scientists is at the heart of the IRCM’s mission. When you choose the IRCM for your studies, you become part of a center of expertise in biomedical research where you can obtain a master’s degree (M. Sc.) or doctoral degree (PhD) from Université de Montréal or McGill University. IRCM researchers are affiliated with different departments at these two universities.

Master’s degree
This thesis-based master’s program allows you to undertake a specialization in scientific research and prepare you for the job market or PhD studies. This program is research-based, meaning you will conduct research full-time on a project that is assigned to you. The program also includes theoretical courses and concludes with the writing of a thesis.
The average length of a master’s degree is two years. However, if you would like to make an accelerated transition to a PhD, the master’s program in Molecular and Cellular Medicine may be for you!
PhD
Through more advanced research activities, the PhD expands on laboratory learning and offers the opportunity to make a greater contribution to the advancement of knowledge in a chosen field. At the end of their journey, PhD students must write a thesis that presents the results of their research project and defend it before a jury. This training is of an average duration of five years.
Prerequisites
for graduate studies
at the IRCM
To pursue graduate studies at the IRCM, our students have the option of enrolling at Université de Montréal or McGill University depending on the affiliation of the chosen research director. They must therefore meet the prerequisites of these universities.
How do I register for
a graduate program
at the IRCM?
1- Choose the research topic you are passionate about
We address numerous research topics at the IRCM, so there are many options available to you. What are you passionate about? What do you want to explore in greater depth? We recommend familiarizing yourself with the different research groups and then contacting a research director. With the exception of the Master’s in Molecular and Cellular Medicine option, completing a program at the IRCM requires the support of a research director from the start of the program.
By contacting the research director, you can discuss your scientific aspirations, the needs of the research group, and the process to follow.
2- Choose from the opportunities posted
You can also choose from the research projects currently available by looking at our offers to see if any of them correspond to your ambitions.
