TDI's Master of Science
TDI students gain skills in reading effectively and efficiently to amass an evidence-based foundation in health services research.
Research Proposal
MS students, through the
year-long MS Tutorial Series 1-4,
are required to complete a
research proposal based on a
topic with primary data collection.
Students choose to develop their
own projects based on their
specific interests, skills, and career
aspirations. The ultimate goal of
the research proposal is to help
each MS student gain foundational
skills in scientific argument that
he/she can, in his/her future
career, transfer to different kinds of
researchable problems. To see a recent list of research proposals, you may go here.
