Events
The Faculty of Science is committed to fostering our connection to the community beyond Carleton and to increasing the awareness and appreciation of science in society.
We are proud to share our contributions with the local community and to contribute to the public understanding of science through our annual Herzberg and Discovery lectures, annual butterfly show, and our Science Café series, all of which are free and open to the public.
The Science Student Success Centre (SSSC) also runs many events throughout the academic year for our student community. From workshops and networking sessions to social activities, there’s always something happening to support your success as a Carleton Science student.
