Meet with a recruitment specialist

Choosing a university is a big decision for both students and parents, especially when considering a school in another country. To support you in making an informed choice, we offer weekly online drop-in sessions where you can connect directly with our recruitment specialist for our undergraduate programs. 

What are the drop-in sessions?

These sessions are informal, open discussions held every Tuesday from noon to 1 p.m. (Ottawa time) designed to accommodate prospective students from around the world. They provide a relaxed environment where you can ask questions in either English or in French. 

Drop-in sessions for the Winter 2025 term will start on January 14, 2025. You can now register for winter drop-in sessions.

During these sessions, our recruitment specialist can help you:

  • Learn the differences between programs: Get detailed explanations of the various undergraduate engineering and computer science programs we offer, including unique aspects of each program and what might be the best fit for your interests and goals.
  • Pick the right program for you: Receive personalized advice to help you choose the program that aligns with your strengths, interests and future aspirations.
  • Know the prerequisites: Understand the admission requirements and prerequisites for each program so that you can be fully prepared when applying.
  • Discover career opportunities: Explore the many career paths that our programs can lead to, and learn about the industries and roles in which our graduates thrive.
