Program Code: 07681
Campus: IGS, Online
Length: 3 semesters
Embark on an engaging educational journey in clinical research with our comprehensive online program, structured over three semesters. Immerse yourself in curriculum meticulously designed to cultivate the vital skills required to flourish in the dynamic realm of clinical research.
Humber’s Clinical Research graduate certificate program prepares graduates with the transferable skills needed to build successful careers in a variety of clinical trial management and research sectors. This program focuses on developing the concepts, skills and techniques required to work in the clinical research field. You will gain knowledge and skills in the planning and management of clinical research including practices related to the organization, execution and monitoring of clinical trials. You will learn clinical trial protocol development as part of the principles and processes of clinical trial design.
There is an emphasis on maintaining good clinical practice (GCP) as presented by the International Conference on Harmonization (ICH), along with the importance of data collection, analysis, recording and auditing - all to ensure that clinical trial data are credible and accurate. You will become familiar with the many regulations and guidelines established to ensure trials are conducted ethically and in ways that respect the rights of clinical trial participants, while ensuring the execution of robust scientific research.
Teamwork and communication skills are reinforced throughout the program, and you will acquire the necessary technological skills to assist with data management specific to the field.
You will also benefit from:
Program Delivery Options:
Fall Intake: Courses are scheduled over two 14-week semesters, and are asynchronous, self-directed online modules, with set dates for evaluations. A field experience occurs in Semester 3 and is in-person. This offering is unavailable to international students.
Winter Intake: Courses are scheduled over two 14-week semesters, and classes are a mix of in-person at the International Graduate School campus, and asynchronous, self-directed online modules, with set dates for evaluations. A field experience occurs in Semester 3 and is in-person. This offering is open to domestic and international students.
Having solidified your theoretical foundation in the first two semesters, the third semester becomes pivotal – the work placement component. Imagine 450 hours of that provides opportunities to apply and integrate theoretical knowledge and skills into real-world work settings. During Semester 3, students complete their learning at field experience sites, and assessments are carried out by assigned supervisors at the site of field experience. The nature of the internship, whether paid or unpaid, remote, hybrid, or on-site is entirely contingent upon the policies of the potential employer providing the placement opportunity.
While actively seeking internship opportunities falls within the students' purview, our program is dedicated to offering robust support. We provide resources, guidance and networking opportunities to facilitate potential placements, bridging the gap between theory and real-world application. Humber's dedicated faculty and work-integrated learning staff support students in preparing and securing field experience. Humber has strong relationships with academia; teaching hospitals; the government sector; and industry partners such as pharmaceuticals, medical devices, natural health and food products, cosmetics, and cannabis to support learners in finding opportunities. While all these supports are in place, learners are strongly encouraged to search on their own and network to help ensure that they successfully secure and complete the field experience component of the program.
