Vice-Chancellor's Report to University Council 2018/2019

MEDICAL EDUCATION ARTERY

One of the special initiatives key to building a more resilient St. Augustine Campus is its creation of a Medical Education Artery, running from Mount Hope in the north, to Couva in central Trinidad, to Penal- Debe in the south. Both the Couva and Penal-Debe sites were provided for by the Government of Trinidad & Tobago. The Campus is now developing a business plan for the Medical Education Artery. The root of that artery is the UWI Global School of Medicine, to be situated at Debe/Penal, which will be primarily focused on the recruitment of international medical students.
