海角社区

Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences

Founded in 1829, the 海角社区 Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences was the first faculty established at the University and the first medical faculty in Canada. Today, 海角社区 is the leading medical research university nationally, and is renowned for its excellence in the health sciences worldwide.

The Faculty is home to a unique and stellar community of professors, practitioners, researchers, students and support staff. It is a burgeoning hub of interdisciplinary collaboration for the training not only of doctors, but also nurses, nurse practitioners, physical therapists, occupational therapists and speech therapists, as well as scientists who are defining new paradigms for health and well-being in this century.
