Again, it was a first in Canada. This led to Faculty status in 1972. The next big step forward was in 1993, when a PhD in Nursing was started. The long standing undergraduate and graduate programs have changed over the years in recognition of the changing expectations of the health care system and the public. All our programs will continue to change and evolve.
Research is increasingly the driving force behind the changes.
Faculty members at the University of Toronto are among the best researchers in Canada and the world in those research programs sponsored by the Faculty.
