Visiting Carleton
Carleton is pleased to host international visitors, university delegations, government officials, and dignitaries. Our office is the first point of contact for requests involving those who wish to visit our beautiful campus or are interested in establishing academic and research partnerships in-person. These visits include specific faculties and departments or several units at the same time depending on the availability of the parties involved. Early advance notice of the proposed visit is required. Virtual meetings can also be arranged.
To learn more about Carleton before your visit, please browse by department or check out the university’s research page.
