Schulich School of Medicine & Dentistry, combined schools of medicine and dentistry at the University of Western Ontario
The Schulich School of Medicine & Dentistry is a medical and dental faculty at Western University in London, Ontario. The institution houses departments for medical sciences, clinical training, and dental studies with lecture halls, laboratories, and modern facilities.
The medical school was founded in 1881 and is the seventh-oldest medical school in Canada. The dental program began in 1964, and both schools merged in 1997 to form the current institution.
The school is named after the philanthropist Joseph L. Rotman and reflects its deep connection to the medical community. It functions as a gathering place for future doctors and dentists, where daily work blends with collegial exchange.
Visitors can explore the campus in person or use virtual tours to learn about the facilities. Since the school is actively engaged in teaching and research, visits are best arranged in advance.
A remarkably extensive network of over 110 healthcare partner sites throughout the region allows students to gain practical experience across different communities. This regional focus sets the school apart through its deep ties to local and surrounding healthcare networks.
