Dalhousie University's MSc in Clinical Vision Science (Faculty of Health) is an innovative graduate program developed in partnership with IWK Health Centre. The program integrates advanced coursework, laboratory work, supervised clinical training, and research, preparing graduates for specialized professional practice in orthoptics and ophthalmic medical technology. Its curriculum covers theoretical foundations, clinical practicum, and a research thesis in vision science. Graduates earn both an MSc and a concurrent Graduate Diploma in Orthoptics/Ophthalmic Medical Technology. The program emphasizes the integration of research findings into clinical experience and fosters skills critical to diagnostic and therapeutic ocular care in the health, education, research, and pharmaceutical sectors. It is designed to meet the global shortage of orthoptic professionals, especially in pediatrics, with employability rates near 100%.
