What is the ARTC?

The ARTC is a collaborative venture among four Atlantic Canada universities - Memorial University of Newfoundland, University of New Brunswick, University of Prince Edward Island, and Saint Mary's University. The objectives of the ARTC are to:

  • Provide graduate education at the master’s level in the area of applied health services research from an interdisciplinary perspective;

  • Advance reciprocal arrangements between academic communities and decision-maker organizations which facilitate the use of evidence in policy decisions affecting the health of Atlantic Canadians;

  • Create a platform where interchanges between decision makers and health researchers from academic communities can generate policy relevant research.
