School of Graduate Studies

Overview

Given the extreme human toll and system-wide impact of the pandemic, healthcare service research has never been more important. Knowledge transfer, or connecting research findings with those who need the knowledge, is quite literally vital to our well-being and survival as individuals, institutions, and societies. The course will explore the facilitators and barriers of using evidence in decision‑making and develop students’ understanding of the conceptual, philosophical, and theoretical underpinnings of knowledge transfer and research uptake.

Students will also learn how to create ongoing, sustainable linkages with decision makers and share research findings with academic and non‑academic audiences.

Teaching and guiding students in evidence‑based decision‑making, examining barriers and facilitators, encouraging the use of research evidence through behavioural change, social marketing, and sustained linkages.
