Graduate Programs

At INRS, you learn through research. As soon as you arrive, you’ll be integrated into a research team, where you’ll benefit from specialized training in a collaborative interdisciplinary environment. According to a survey of our community, 95% of graduates say that INRS has met their expectations.

Depending on the program you choose, you will be enrolled at one of our four research and training centres located in Quebec City, Montreal, Laval, and Varennes.

INRS graduate programs are thematic and non-disciplinary. All programs are based on excellence and innovation.
