Graduate Program Report
We would like to take this opportunity to acknowledge the tremendous resilience of our students who continue to fight COVID-19 on the front lines whether in their own clinics, assessment centres, contact tracing or in long term care facilities. Despite their tremendous clinical roles, they remain committed to pursuing their academic goals in the MClSc and PhD Programs.
The Enhanced Skills Program (Academic Family Medicine) has interviewed one candidate for the MClSc Program, an offer was extended and accepted.
With FMF and NAPCRG being virtual this year our recruitment efforts at these venues were not feasible. We encourage faculty to continue to promote our Graduate Programs to their residents and colleagues.
