Tours

There’s nothing quite like seeing things with your own eyes. Tour our campus, talk to your student guide and get a first-hand idea of what it’s like to be a McGill student. If you can’t visit now, you can take a virtual tour.


Open House

Every October, McGill rolls out the red carpet to thousands of prospective students and their families on Open House day

Open House is an opportunity for prospective students and their families to learn what McGill University and the Faculty of Engineering have to offer with regards to undergraduate programs, graduate programs, student services and support, student clubs, organizations, design teams, teaching, research and exchange opportunities, etc. Parents and students can join select studio, research lab and facilities’ tours, as well as engage with current students, professors, staff and engineering alumni.

Women in Engineering Reception

The Faculty’s Women in Engineering Reception (January) offers an opportunity for newly admitted female engineering students and their parents to meet representatives of the Faculty — including current students, professors, academic advisors, student groups and design teams, etc, — to learn more about Faculty programs and gain insights into the support systems and services available to female students at the Faculty of Engineering.


POWE Shadow Days

POWE Shadow Days welcome girls in high school and CEGEP to McGill Engineering and give them the opportunity to experience a typical day-in-the-life of a POWE  student at McGill Engineering. 


POWE Conference for Future Women in Engineering

POWE Conference for Future Women in Engineering is a day of activities held each spring geared towards introducing girls in high school and CEGEP to the prospect of engineering as a career. This conference gives girls an idea of what it is like to study engineering at McGill, and provides an opportunity to meet female engineers and engineering students.


School of Architecture diversity initiatives

The School of Architecture hosts several annual events celebrating women’s achievements in the profession.  Among these is the Sheila Baillie Lecture in Architecture, an annual public lecture, or series of lectures, which is managed and hosted by the School of Architecture and intended to celebrate the work of distinguished female educators and practitioners.

The School of Architecture is a proud participant in the university’s new Yan P. Lin Centre for the Study of Freedom and Global Orders in Ancient and Modern Worlds, where several of its professors will explore issues of spatial justice.
