Transformational health starts here.
The most programmatically diverse health faculty in Canada, Dal Health is comprised of 8 schools, one college and one program, more than 200 faculty members, 80 staff and over 3,000 students. We lead integrated health research and education through collaborative partnerships locally, nationally and globally.
Support Equity in Healthcare
The Johnson Pathways Scholarship fund serves as a catalyst for change within the healthcare system in the Maritimes. The fund addresses the under representation of Indigenous and African Nova Scotians in the delivery of healthcare, by inspiring more students from these communities to pursue health-related careers. Your contribution will help support aspiring students in pursuing a university education in Health, Medicine and Dentistry at Dalhousie.
