M.Sc. in Dental Sciences
The goal of this program is to train students in research in the dental sciences, which comprise a number of disciplines relating to the functioning of the oro-facial complex.
For the Thesis Master’s in Dental Sciences, we aim to train students to:
M.Sc. in Dental Sciences, Option in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
A residency training program in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery provides candidates with a comprehensive background for the practice of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery as a specialty.
During the four years of the program, candidates serve as residents principally at the Montreal General Hospital. During this time, residents are given increasing responsibility for the care of in-patients and out-patients, as well as being required to fulfil certain basic science courses and other assignments. A research project must be undertaken, followed by a master's thesis.
The program is open to one candidate per year.

Master of Science (M.Sc.) Dental Sciences (Thesis): Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery (46 credits) |
Æ»¹ûÒùÔº, through the Faculty of Dentistry and the Æ»¹ûÒùÔº Health Centre, offers an advanced education program in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery. The program is fully accredited by the Accreditation Committee. It is a four-year program and commences on July 1 of each year. |
Master of Science (M.Sc.) Dental Sciences (Non-Thesis) (45 credits) |
This Non-Thesis M.Sc. program offers students the possibility to explore new information on various research topics to supplement existing education. Students are able to "sample" various research areas without committing to a specific research topic or project by entering either the Basic Science stream or the Clinical and Populational Health stream. All non-thesis students are encouraged to seek volunteer and summer research opportunities with researchers in the Faculty to further their research experience. This program provides students a great opportunity to clarify their interests, connect with faculty members, and engage with their cutting-edge research programs to seek additional career and training options (such as entering a Ph.D. program). This non-thesis option is not a residency program and does not provide clinical qualifications. |
M.Sc. in Dental Sciences
Students who have successfully completed a B.A. with a CGPA of 3.0 on a 4.0 scale are eligible to apply for admission to a graduate program in the Faculty of Dentistry leading to the M.Sc. degree in Dental Sciences. (or ) test results are required for applicants to graduate studies whose mother tongue is not English, and who have not completed an undergraduate or graduate degree from a recognized Canadian institution (anglophone or francophone) or from a recognized foreign institution where English is the language of instruction.
The number of candidates accepted each year will depend on the elective courses and research facilities available that are applicable to the candidate's area of expertise.
Bachelor’s students who have not obtained eligible qualifications will be required to make up for deficiencies in their academic profile by taking a Qualifying year.
M.Sc. in Dental Sciences, Option in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
Candidates for this program must possess a D.D.S. or D.M.D. degree or its equivalent, and be eligible for acceptance to the as a training candidate in a hospital.
Æ»¹ûÒùԺ’s online application form for graduate program candidates is available at www.mcgill.ca/gradapplicants/apply.
See University Regulations & Resources > Graduate > Graduate Æ»¹ûÒùÔº and Application Procedures > Application Procedures for detailed application procedures.
M.Sc. in Dental Sciences, Option in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
This is a four-year M.Sc. thesis program. Applicants to the OMFS program must apply to the Certificate in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery (not Graduate Studies) via the undergraduate online application system. Prior to the start of the third year, students will be requested to submit an application to the M.Sc. Dental Sciences – OMFS program (Graduate Studies program) via uApply in order to complete the program.
Further information may be obtained through the Dentistry website.
Application opening dates are set by Enrolment Services in consultation with Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies (GPS), while application deadlines are set by the Faculty of Dentistry and may be revised at any time. Applicants must verify all deadlines and documentation requirements well in advance on the appropriate Æ»¹ûÒùÔº departmental website; please consult the list at www.mcgill.ca/gps/contact/graduate-program.
