Preference will be given to candidates with lived experiences as people from equity deserving groups, as well as experience working with these communities with which the University works every day. Please note that all qualified candidates are encouraged to apply and we welcome newcomers and immigrants to Canada.
About the School of Medicine
It’s time to transform medical education. Toronto Metropolitan University’s School of Medicine has been designed from the ground up to shift the paradigm of healthcare delivery and improve the well-being of individuals, families and communities. With a community-driven, intentionally inclusive approach, the new school is training doctors whose cultural awareness and humility are as crucial as their medical skills.
Led by Dr. Teresa M. Chan, a forward-thinking educational leader, TMU’s School of Medicine draws on the university’s commitment to community, equity, and innovation to address rapidly changing healthcare needs. The school will train a new generation of physicians who are ready to learn, to adapt, and ultimately to be agents of change.
In April 2022, the university announced its new name of Toronto Metropolitan University. Learn more about our next chapter.
