Brock and the Niagara Region Public Health and Emergency Services formalized a partnership in September 2019 after many years of collaborations on joint research, experiential education opportunities, career events and guest lectures. The MOU provides a framework for the University and Niagara Region Public Health to move forward together with many more ideas. 

“This MOU facilitates and expands upon the longstanding relationship we have with Niagara Public Health, which provides outstanding experiential education opportunities for our students and enhanced research collaborations for our faculty. As we continue to expand our programs to find new and innovative ways to support the health of Niagara’s aging population, we are expecting even more educational and research opportunities to emerge from this MOU.”

“Deepening our partnership with Brock University will allow a synergy of our on-the-ground insight into people’s health with Brock’s research prowess, thereby ensuring our community has the best scientific evidence.”
