Elsie MacGill Learning Centre

The Elsie MacGill Learning Centre (EMLC) is focused on furthering students understanding and comprehension in their engineering studies, and provides students with the academic support they need to achieve their learning goals.

Whether you have a quick question, want to review a solution, or just need a fresh explanation of content that was covered in class; our Engineering scholars are here to help with your first-year ECOR, math and science courses. During the Fall/Winter terms, our scholars also support the following second-year courses: CIVE 2101, CIVE 2200, ELEC 2501, ELEC 2507, MAAE 2300, MAAE 2400, SYSC 2004 and SYSC 2006.

Summer 2025 Tutoring Services

The EMLC offers tutoring sessions in-person (in 5030MC) and online (via TutorOcean).
Our services are accessible by only undergraduate engineering students and are free!

HOW TO BOOK A TUTORING APPOINTMENT

At the start of each term, engineering students registered in a course supported by the EMLC are sent an email to their Carleton email address inviting them to join our tutoring platform. The EMLC invitation email is sent from the address notifications@mg.tutorocean.com. If you did not receive an invitation email, or have any issues accessing our services please contact the team at EMLC@carleton.ca for assistance. Students will need to set up a tutorocean account using the link provided in the invitation email.
