  • UBC Psychology follows an apprenticeship model of graduate training, where each graduate student collaborates with a faculty member.
  • Prospective applicants are therefore advised to review research interests of our faculty members and identify the best match(es) in potential supervisors.
  • Thesis-based MA/MSc degree in related disciplines such as Neuroscience or Cognitive Science can be accepted at the discretions of the potential supervisors, Area Coordinator, and the Graduate Advisor.
  • Applicants with a BA/BSc in Psychology are not eligible for the PhD program and must apply to the MA program first.
  • The MA program is a 24-month program, which is typically followed by an average of four-five years to complete the PhD program.
  • UBC Psychology is a leader in research and scholarship at the graduate and postgraduate level.

Hello. I am Grace Idachaba from Nigeria. I have completed my bachelors of science in Nursing (4 year course) in Norther Cyprus. I graduated in July of 2023. I have no other experience apart from the internship placements we had during our time in school. This is due to the language barrier we face here (Turkish). Am I still elidgible to apply for the MSc in Nursing program at UBC?
