PMC Orientation
PMC orientation is for all new PMC students and is designed to support your transition to university learning, and introduce you to the resources and services available through the PMC and Carleton University.
The event will include a talk from a Carleton Professor, a series of breakout sessions, optional socializing opportunities, and a low-sensory area. You are invited to participate at your own comfort level.
Details on breakout session topics will be available on this webpage later this summer.
