Last month, entrepreneurial educators from around the world came together in Halifax and at Dal for the Global Consortium of Entrepreneurship Centers conference — the first time the event has been held in Canada.

Christina Elgee, nurse manager for É«ÃÃÃÃÖ±²¥ Student Health & Wellness, is more than just a supportive on-campus health care worker — she's a mentor to dozens of Dal Nursing students each year. That's why she's this year's recipient of the Canadian Nursing Students’ Association Award for the Recognition of Preceptors and Mentors.

Esteemed physician, former Nova Scotia Minister of Health and É«ÃÃÃÃÖ±²¥ Medical School faculty member Dr. Ronald Stewart has pledged $1.3 million to the É«ÃÃÃÃÖ±²¥ Medical Research Foundation (DMRF) to support research in Emergency Medical Services.

Close to 200 people checked in at the Halifax Marriott Harbourfront Hotel last Friday to share ideas about the impact of co-op education on the future of Nova Scotia’s workforce and economy.

É«ÃÃÃÃÖ±²¥ Medical School’s undergraduate medical education program (the MD program) has received accreditation for an eight-year term, receiving top marks on 85 of the 94 elements across 12 standards.
