Prepares students to evaluate and critique statistics and research methods in counselling psychology, including learning about the use and misuse of basic quantitative and qualitative analytical techniques in counselling-related research and in program evaluation. The course also provides an introduction to ethical issues in research, and conducting critical reviews of literature.

This seminar-style course provides training in quantitative, qualitative, and mixed-methods and program evaluation designs for conducting empirical research in counselling psychology. It is an advanced level course that assumes basic undergraduate competence in statistics and social scientific research. Students will be exposed to the methods and stages of basic research, applied research, and program evaluation. An emphasis is placed on training students to reflect critically on the methods themselves - their philosophical underpinnings, promises, and limitations.

This course introduces the art of counselling kills as a part of the growth process. Basic helping skills will be explored from Hill’s three stage model of helping; exploration, insight and action. Students will be provided a framework from which they can approach the counselling process. They will also learn specific skills to use in sessions with clients to help their clients explore, gain insight, and make changes in their lives. Students will also begin to explore the process of coming to think of themselves as a helper.

These are the course numbers for co-op work terms. The appropriate semester coincides with the first digit; i.e., 110 would be the first semester of work experience for students in the co-op program. Co-op terms provide an opportunity to integrate theory and practice. Requirements include completion of a work term report.

An overview of the interdisciplinary science of genomics, proteomics, and bioinformatics which applies the tools of information technology (computer hardware and software) to analyze biological data such as gene or protein sequences. This course examines the theory of bioinformatics as well as its practical application to biological problems using approaches such as BLAST searches, phylogenetics, and protein structure function analysis.
