About

Building on our strengths to advance health

Responding to current needs for flexible learning, the Health Institute offers lectures, workshops and courses under one interprofessional umbrella.  The Health Institute is aimed at health students and health practitioners seeking new skills and the latest in best practices.

Both credit and non-credit courses are offered, taught by faculty members from a number of our Schools.

Credit-earning courses (at both undergraduate and graduate levels) provide opportunities for current students to enrich their core programs and complete certificates concurrent with their other studies.
