Medical education to play a role in Windsor’s economic revival: professor

On the eve of the graduation of the first class of physicians from the Schulich School of Medicine & Dentistry – Windsor Program, associate dean Gerry Cooper says medical education in Windsor is really on the move.

“Windsor boasts exceptional learning facilities for our medical students and, not surprisingly, they consistently tell us how impressed they are with their learning environments, both at the University of Windsor and within Windsor Regional and Hotel-Dieu Grace Hospitals,” he writes in an opinion piece in Monday’s Windsor Star.

“On the horizon and consistent with our Schulich School of Medicine & Dentistry's Strategic Plan, we hope to expand our research enterprise at the Windsor Program; there are numerous opportunities for cross-collaborations with other departments within the University of Windsor, our colleagues at local hospitals and other like-minded organizations in the vicinity.”
