Congratulations to our Faculty of Health Legacy award winners. The theme of мÓÆÂÁùºÏ²Ê¿ª½±Ö±²¥â€™s 2018 Legacy Awards is ‘Making Waves,’ — and with good reason. The awards recognize and celebrate those who inspire others and make a significant difference to the Dal community every day.

Lucy Maud Montgomery scrimped and saved to study at мÓÆÂÁùºÏ²Ê¿ª½±Ö±²¥ College, starting classes in what is now the Forrest Building in the fall of 1895. Now, the Faculty of Health has formally recognized this connection with a plaque in the lobby of the historic Forrest Building.

Professor Jo Cooke received a warm welcome from the Faculty of Health when she visited мÓÆÂÁùºÏ²Ê¿ª½±Ö±²¥ for a series of presentations on June 18, 2018. Professor Cooke, from Sheffield England, is the Deputy Director and Capacity Lead, NIHR CLAHRC Yorkshire and Humber, STH NHS Foundation Trust.

Cross-Faculty teams have been hard at work over the past months, planning our signature Dal 200th events: the Healthy Living, Healthy Life Conference (September 19 – 21) and the Shaun T Community Workout (September 22).

The Perserverance Award is just one way that Physiotherapy alumni Chris Cluett (BScPT’03) and Justin Whittle (BScPT’03) are giving back to Dal.

The first Homecoming of our third century will be filled with many celebrations, family-friendly events, musical performances, the annual 5th President’s Fun Run/Walk, Tigers and Rams games, Ignite: Dal’s Third Century gala dinner, parties, and so much more…a celebration not to be missed.

Growing up in Ottawa and Calgary, Joanna Clarke (BScRec’09, BMgt’09) planned a career in chemical engineering. Second thoughts brought her to the Recreation Management program at Dal.

Since 2015, Dal's PhD in Health program has educated leaders who have the vision and passion to implement fresh approaches and innovative ideas that will transform our healthcare system.

The Faculty of Health is pleased to welcome Dr. Cheryl Kozey as Dean (Acting) and Dr. Shaun Boe as Acting Associate Dean Research. Dr. Erna Snelgrove-Clarke has been reappointed as Acting Associate Dean Academic.

Canada has just released its first ever singular policy focused on physical activity, A Common Vision for Increasing Physical Activity and Reducing Sedentary Living in Canada: Let’s Get Moving.
