WELCOME

The Health Law, Ethics and Policy Training Program is part of the Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR)'s Strategic Training Initiative in Health Research (STIHR). Created in 2001, our program has attracted over 71 trainees and provided them a unique matrix of training. The program aims to equip graduates with the skills necessary to address the legal and ethical challenges presented by quick evolving changes in health care.

There is an overwhelming demand for our students: all our graduates are pursuing further study in health law or employed in academia, in private practice, or as decision-makers. Our program also provides students with knowledge translation skills in a number of ways, such as training them in publication strategies and in how to make effective presentations for decision-maker audiences. Students have the opportunity to interact with internationally renowned Canadian scholars in health law, ethics and policy, government decision-makers and receive the support of a multidisciplinary team of mentors.

The Program welcomes applications from domestic and international law graduate students (both at the Masters and Doctoral level) based at any of our training partners: Dalhousie University, Université de Sherbrooke, University of Alberta and University of Toronto.

For further information, please refer to the admission information or contact us at info@healthlawtraining.ca.
