Managing growth and opportunity

When the Scarborough Academy of Medicine and Integrated Health (SAMIH) was first announced in March 2022, its opening seemed like a distant dream. We needed to construct a building, recruit and train faculty, and then admit the highly qualified health professions students who would learn at the University of Toronto Scarborough (UTSC). But, thanks to many people's hard work and dedication, we are realizing the benefits of SAMIH today, even before classes start at UTSC in fall 2026.
