TMM Student of the Year Award

Awarded to a few students of the English and French streams who have successfully completed the course TMM3009 and demonstrated academic excellence through overall average and research capabilities.

WiBR

The Work in Biomedical Research (WiBR) program gives TMM students an opportunity to apply their classroom knowledge in a laboratory environment while their supervisor enhances the TMM student’s education. WiBR allows students to gain valuable work experience and lay the foundation over the summer for their potential Honour’s project. WiBR will provide up to $3,500 with the employer being mandated to complete the salary to a minimum stipend of $6,500 for the student over the summer. It is also mandatory that the sum of the stipend must be at least equal to the minimum wage defined by the Province of Ontario and therefore, the number of work hours/week, and number of weeks or the amount of the supplement provided by the supervisor may need to be adjusted.
