By Rosalind Russell – The Northern Ontario School of Medicine University is once again seeking applications from healthcare agencies for its summer studentship program.
According to the release, businesses and agencies involved in health care can apply for funding to help subsidize the cost of hiring summer students from the medical school.
Applications to NOSM University’s Summer Studentship Program are open from February 1st to 15th.
The program, which is funded by the Ministry of Health, is run by NOSM University to help Northern Ontario health-care partners recruit various allied health services professionals while providing invaluable, paid workplace experience to interested learners.
