Collaborative Programs

RSI students have the opportunity to broaden their graduate experience through a range of collaborative programs offered by the University of Toronto. These specializations allow students to develop expertise in complementary areas while working across disciplines and engaging with diverse scholarly communities.

Current collaborative program opportunities include:

Students also have access to 'The Essentials of Qualitative Research (EQR)' Course Series offered through the Centre for Critical Qualitative Health Research.

Collaborative programs allow students to explore research questions from multiple perspectives, build connections beyond their primary discipline, and strengthen their capacity to address complex rehabilitation and health challenges. Depending on the program, students may complete specialized coursework, participate in seminar series, and work with supervisory committee members from multiple disciplines.

Upon successful completion of all degree and collaborative program requirements, students receive a specialization designation from the School of Graduate Studies.

Students interested in pursuing a collaborative program are encouraged to contact the RSI graduate coordinator for additional information and guidance.
