Your Pre-Health Journey Starts Here!

The FHSPC aspires to help students interested in health science professional careers strive to achieve their goals

What is Health Science?

Health Science is the “umbrella term” that contains many healthcare careers and professional school options. Applying to a Health professions school may seem daunting but our committee members & professional (advisors) are here to help you through the process.

CanMEDS

CanMEDS is a framework that identifies and describes the abilities health science professionals require to effectively meet the health care needs of the people they serve. These abilities are grouped thematically under seven roles. A competent health science professional seamlessly integrates the competencies of all seven CanMEDS Roles.

Gain Experience

It is important to gain hands-on clinical experience as you explore and prepare your application to a health science professions program. You can seek out many community-based volunteer opportunities through:

• Experiential Learning Hub
• Student Volunteer Connections
• Guelph General Hospital
