Building the foundation
for health sciences education and research

First-hand, every day, you witness how careers
in health sciences contribute to quality of life.
You also see how the fields of medicine and
physical therapy have evolved to respond to
the changing health needs of Saskatchewan,
Canada and the world.
The education and training that the next
generation of health professionals receive
needs to be as diverse as the health issues
they will be facing. The U of S Health Sciences
project, in bringing together all disciplines
of health sciences, will create a new future
of health research, education and practice,
one that builds on the history and values of
the past.

Cranes dot the skyline of the Health Sciences
project site. And for good reason as it is the
largest capital project in the history of the
U of S. When complete, the Health Sciences
building will be an innovative and integrated
facility that supports interdisciplinary
co-operation between students and faculty
in every aspect of health science education
and research.
The project will bring together a cross-section
of researchers, teachers and students from
all disciplines of health sciences. Dentistry,
medicine, nursing, pharmacy and nutrition,
physical therapy and public health will all find
a new home in the state-of-the-art facilities.
Collaborative spaces will be available so
researchers and students can work closely
with colleagues in kinesiology and
veterinary medicine.
