Program Requirements
The MSc in Family Medicine; Medical Education option is a thesis option graduate program designed to provide research training to family physicians, and exceptionally other health professionals and other students interested in family medicine education research. This MSc 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. The FMER鈥檚 ultimate goal is to advance knowledge to: (1) constantly inform family medicine curricula innovations and continuing professional development to better family physicians鈥� clinical practice, (2) significantly contribute to the development of the family medicine education field of inquiry, and (3) rigorously develop and inform medical education policy. This research agenda of FMER is articulated into four interrelated streams: (1) family physicians鈥� professional identity formation; (2) information use and technology in the learning episodes of practicing physicians and organizational learning; (3) mentoring in family medicine education, and (4) knowledge synthesis.
