A Message from the Program Director

The NOSM Public Health and Preventive Medicine Program is designed with an explicit focus on building skills to improve northern, rural and Indigenous health, while preparing residents to practice the full breadth and depth of public health and preventive medicine. Flexibility in our program allows our residents to tailor learning environments and areas of focus to meet their own individual career goals.

The NOSM Public Health and Preventive Medicine Residency Program aims to foster the ability of our residents to flourish as independent practitioners of public health that improve the health of populations. We look forward to welcoming new learners to our program and the various sections of our website will provide you with a comprehensive overview of this unique training opportunity and what to expect as a learner in our program.
