Distinction between BSc(Med) and MED Summer Research Program:
BSc(Med) Program: The B.Sc. (Med.) program gives medical students an opportunity to engage in original research, either in basic medical sciences or clinical or community health, under the supervision of a member of the Medical Faculty (or a faculty member from an approved institution). The BSc(Med) program spans for 2 summers and is a DEGREE program where students are awarded their BSc(Med) upon graduation from medical school.
MED Summer Research Program: The specific aim of the program is to develop student skills within the following areas: experimental design, hypothesis testing, critical evaluation of data and effective communication of results. This is a non-degree course but will be recorded on the student's transcript. Applications are reviewed by the selection committee and ranked accordingly. This is a ONE summer program and is available to either 1st year or 2nd year medical students.
