McGill Summer Institutes in Global Health
May 23 - June 16, 2023

Proudly offering short courses for students and professionals for eight years.

Summary

Started in 2015, the McGill Summer Institute brings the research and clinical strengths of McGill University and the McGill University Health Centre-Research Institute to the world in a short course format. Courses for 2023 are offered in a hybrid (concurrent online and in-person) and online-only formats. Course material will be recorded to accommodate asynchronous learners from all time zones. The course page and the FAQ section are available to answer any questions you have.

Who should attend

Participants are students and working professionals from universities, research institutes, governmental and non-profit organizations, and industry. Our courses are excellent sources of professional development or supplemental material for current students looking to learn more. The Summer Institute encourages applications from low and middle-income countries. In 2022, 59% of our attendees were from an LMIC country. A limited amount of scholarships are available to cover registration fees for participants currently living and working or studying in a low or middle-income country. Visit our scholarships section to learn more about scholarships before applying.

Recognizing that McGill University and Canada are on unceded Indigenous land, and that the social determinants of health disproportionately affect the peoples of Indigenous nations, we acknowledge that the McGill School of Population and Global Health (including the McGill Summer Institutes in Global Health) is situated on the traditional territory of the Kanien'kehà:ka, which has long served as a site of meeting and exchange amongst Indigenous Peoples, including the Haudenosaunee and Anishinabeg nations. We acknowledge and thank the diverse Indigenous Peoples whose presence marks this territory on which peoples of the world now gather.
