REQUIREMENTS

• The candidate should have solid training in statistics, computer science or bioinformatics.
• A GPA of at least 3.5 (4.5 scale) in the previous 60 credit hours of university study, or equivalent(normally two years).
• Passed one of the following English exam (results are still valid) if they have not completed a post-secondary education within a English-speaking environment: TOEFL - Internet-based test (80); MELAB - 80%; CAEL - 60 overall and 60 on each subject; IELTS - 6.5
• Generally, there is no direct entry into the Ph.D. program for students with Master's degrees from non-Canadian universities. Applications will be assessed by the admissions committee on an individual basis; in most cases students with Master's degrees from international universities are admitted into the Master's program. They can subsequently request for a transfer into the Ph.D. program, if eligible, based on the procedures within 1.5 years.
