2025 11 12 SFU’s Next Chapter: The New Medical School and Beyond

Description

Event Overview

Join us for an inspiring and informative event as Simon Fraser University embarks on a transformative new chapter. This event will spotlight SFU’s bold vision for the future – from celebrating its 60th anniversary to launching Western Canada’s first new medical school in more than half a century.

As we navigate a challenging time for BC, post-secondary institutions are playing a critical role in contributing to growth and prosperity across communities. This milestone event marks a turning point not only for SFU and Surrey, but for the entire province. The new medical school will help train the next generation of doctors and healthcare professionals to serve BC’s growing and diverse communities. It represents an unprecedented investment in our region’s health, workforce, research, and economic resilience – and it will open doors for collaboration with businesses and community partners across Surrey and beyond.

Don’t miss this chance to be part of the conversation shaping the future of SFU and the health of our communities.
