Overview
Started in 2015, the McGill Summer Institute brings the research and clinical strengths of McGill University and the McGill University Health Centre-Research Institute to the world in a short course format.
In 2022, we are thrilled to announce our evolution into the Summer Institutes in Global Health expanding our offerings to other global health topics beyond infectious diseases.
Courses for 2022 are offered in a hybrid (concurrent online and in-person) and online-only formats. Applicants applying before February 4, 2022 will receive an additional 10% off of the early bird pricing. Use promo code “McGillSummer22” when you register.
Who should attend
Participants are students and working professionals from universities, research institutes, governmental and non-profit organizations, and industry. Our courses are excellent sources of professional development or supplemental material for current students looking to learn more. The Summer Institute encourages applications from low and middle income countries. In 2021, 57% of our attendees were from a LMIC country.
A limited amount of scholarships are available to cover registration fees for participants currently living and working or studying in a low or middle income country. Visit our scholarships section to learn more about scholarships before applying.
