Our research
At the School of Nursing, our researchers contribute to the strength of communities by addressing priorities in population health, health equity, health informatics and clinical care.
The UVic Research Unit has three objectives:
- Pioneer and generate new ideas about pedagogy, advocacy, leadership and research.
- Connect, collaborate and communicate with partners, communities and civil society on those topics.
- Support and sustain innovation.
