Happy New Year!

The UPEI Health Research Network is looking for full/part-time undergraduate students for the Connections program, which will start the first week of 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!

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!
