Celebrating Carleton University’s 80th Anniversary
Carleton University acknowledges the location of its campus on the traditional, unceded territories of the Algonquin nation.
It All Began in 1942
In 1942, a group of visionary citizens opened the doors of Carleton College in Ottawa to students building their careers after the Depression and military service in the Second World War. Carleton University has grown to become one of the most resourceful and productive hubs of learning and growth in Canada, forging real partnerships to create research and education that tackles tough, complex challenges and improves lives.
