7 summer-worthy TMU reads to catch up on now

Do you wish you’d had more time to keep up with TMU news this past year? 

If you said yes – not to worry. Between assignments, exams, jobs and the demands of everyday life - it’s tough to stay on top of what’s going on.

You likely caught wind of the bigger things, like the announcement of TMU’s new Doctor of Medicine degree program and the $98.6 million TMU received through the Canada First Research Excellence Fund to support transformational migrant integration research. (Nope, that’s not a typo - nearly $100 million!)

But perhaps there were other headlines that caught your eye, but you didn’t have time to take a deeper look.

Now that summer’s here, so is your chance.
