A readings, tutorial, and/or practical course designed to provide an in-depth study of one or more rehabilitation topics to extend or acquire specialized knowledge in a particular area of interest. A subtitle will be added to the current title to reflect specialized interests.

A readings course in theory or research relevant to rehabilitation. A subtitle will be added to the current title to reflect specialized interests.

Over two university terms, students complete an in-depth study of evidence for practice in an area of interest which will include a review of relevant literature and the development and completion of a small scale project.

A theory and practice course designed to develop an advanced understanding of the application of technology for individuals with disabilities as a means to occupation. Particular emphasis will be on evaluating the impact and understanding the theory guiding the use of assistive technology, and developing an understanding of the contexts in which assistive technologies are used.

This is a required course in the MSc Rehabilitation Sciences degree. It focuses on quantitative and qualitative research methodologies and research designs used in rehabilitation research. Theories and frameworks central to rehabilitation research are incorporated throughout.

This course has been offered in varying forms as a readings course for a number of years. Formalizing the course will increase efficiencies in the M.Sc. Rehabilitation Sciences program whereby individual faculty will no longer need to offer the course to individual students. Faculty recognize that the course covers essential skills that every student needs to acquire, and by covering both qualitative and quantitative health literature, this course will serve the needs of all M.Sc. Rehabilitation Sciences students. The unit is also in the process of proposing a new CoRS-based Ph.D. program. With the introduction of REHB 7290, the unit will be able to offer potential future Ph.D. students with a relevant course to prepare them for Ph.D. studies. The course introduction does not affect the supplementary regulations.
