Warmest greetings from the University of British Columbia’s Faculty of Medicine!
Like many universities impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, the University of British Columbia had to pause its international student programs, including the Vancouver Summer Program (VSP). I am very pleased to inform you that after a two-year hiatus, the UBC Faculty of Medicine is welcoming students back in-person for VSP 2022. The VSP in Medicine remains an excellent academic program, and will give your students the opportunity to:
- Study at a world-renowned medical school and university
- Develop essential skills for success in their future career
- Learn about cutting-edge health research conducted at UBC
- Experience Canadian society, culture and education style
- Explore the beautiful city of Vancouver
- Meet students from Canada and around the world
For VSP 2022, your students can select from 18 course packages, including five new offerings, during the July 16 – August 16, 2022 in-person session.
Full details on the course offerings, eligibility information, fees and expenses, and application deadline, can be found on the VSP website: https://
The online application system is now open and applications are being received on a first come, first served basis, so we encourage your students to apply early. Please feel free to share this email with any of your colleagues or contacts who have students who may be interested in participating in the VSP.
If you have any questions or would like more information about our VSP course packages, please do not hesitate to contact me at med.international@ubc.ca.
We look forward to welcoming your students to the 2022 UBC Faculty of Medicine Vancouver Summer Program!
