NOSM’s Annual Health Sciences Summer Camp Application Deadline Extended

Posted on March 28, 2017

The Northern Ontario School of Medicine (NOSM) maintains a commitment to providing information to rural, remote, Indigenous, and Francophone youth about health careers.

This year, the School will host its annual Health Sciences Summer Camp from July 10 – 14, 2017 at NOSM at Laurentian University in Sudbury and from July 17 – 21, 2017 at NOSM at Lakehead University in Thunder Bay. These week-long programs provide high school students with an opportunity to explore health-care careers, obtain hands-on experience, and find a student-mentor.

Camp activities include: casting and x-rays; CSI; physiology and anatomy; suturing, Francophone and Indigenous health and culture, and, so much more!

NOSM is currently seeking interested high school students who will be attending Grade 10 and 11 in September 2017. The application deadline has been extended to April 21, 2017. Accepted applicants will be contacted by NOSM by April 28, 2017 and will be required to submit a non-refundable registration fee of $400.

Students interested in participating in either camp are encouraged to contact Véronique Poirier, Health Sciences Summer Camp Coordinator, toll free at
