Structure

The McGill Occupational Health Program has incorporated Internet technology. The integration of computer technology and the Internet is intended to support interactive discussion among student groups; to deepen the learning process through the sharing of knowledge acquired through critical reading of research articles and the application of this knowledge to clinical/professional experiences; and to enhance ongoing communication among students, and with professors, tutors and experts in the field. Further, students are strongly encouraged to access leading-edge resources and references available through the Internet.

The program necessitates completion of 10 courses of 3 credits each. Each course emphasizes a specific area of occupational health and safety, and may use different teaching and evaluation methods. Recommended study paths have been designed as guidelines for courses selection. The objectives, activities and evaluation methods for each course are described on the WebCT course home page. Each course has been planned to fit into a 13-week period. This will give you extra time for revision at the end of the course, before your final exam. McGill reserves the right to cancel a course without notice should the enrolment not meet the required number.
