Happy New Year!

The UPEI Health Research Network is looking for full/part-time undergraduate students for the Connections program, which will start in February 2025. 

Would you like to meet new friends and be involved in an inclusive and non-judgmental environment to learn about food, health, stress, coping, and physical activity? 

The staff at the Health Research Network is offering a free eight-session program to help connect undergraduate students to provide an environment for learning on a variety of topics around health and well-being and connecting to the student community. Snacks will be provided at each session!

Check out our Instagram @upeihrn and our Facebook page "UPEI Health Research Network" for our program posters! 

This free program will include eight weekly (2 hour) group education sessions, including 1 hour with a registered dietitian and health educator followed by 1 hour of exercise sessions with a kinesiologist (plus open gym times) located in the lower level of the Steel Building. These sessions will be student-centered so we welcome any level of knowledge and ability. 

If you are interested in registering and booking the pre-assessment screening requirement before starting the program, please email Anja and Laurie at connections@upei.ca for more information or to register. 

We look forward to seeing you there!
