Our health science programs provide innovative research and educational opportunities that aim to solve the most important questions in biomedical and health-care research. We are large but our sense of community is strong. Beyond academics and research, our students organize many different social and academic activities within their departments. These include research days, mentorship programs, sports teams, pub nights and charity fundraisers. These activities bring students together and help to forge friendships for life. We invite you to be a part of it.
