IMS International Community

The IMS International Community Student Group (IMS-ICSG) is a student-led organization at the Institute of Medical Science that supports international students enrolled in IMS programs. The group serves as a hub for connection and peer support, while also fostering engagement with the broader IMS community, including alumni, postdoctoral fellows, and faculty.

Our mission:

IMS-ICSG was founded to foster meaningful connections among international students at IMS and to support navigation of graduate training through events, peer engagement, and resource sharing. Our goal is to support both incoming and continuing students as they integrate into the IMS and broader University of Toronto communities.

What we do:

The IMS International Community Student Group organizes recurring programming that promotes cultural exchange, community building, and peer connection among international and domestic students at IMS. We maintain an external website with current event listings, resources, and opportunities for involvement.

Who should connect with us?

International IMS students at any stage of training, as well as prospective students and members of the broader IMS community interested in supporting international student engagement.
