Campuses
Two Campuses, One Curriculum
Schulich Medicine is fortunate to offer two campuses for students admitted into the Doctor of Medicine (MD) Program. Students in London and Windsor participate in the same curriculum.
Clinical learning across all 4 years of the MD Program is delivered in London and Windsor academic hospitals and in community hospitals, offices and clinics that are affiliated learning sites. These are located on the London and Windsor Campuses, and in over 60 rural and regional communities throughout Southwestern Ontario.
Each student in the MD Program, regardless of home campus, is registered as a student of and prospective graduate from, Western University. Students at the Windsor Campus are jointly registered to allow access to facilities at both the University of Windsor and Western University.
