Kids on Campus

Winner of the 2023 CASE Award - Circle of Excellence (Bronze) for Student Engagement

Kids on Campus is a program that aims to give every Grade 4 student in local and surrounding school boards a chance to visit a world-class engineering school, arousing their curiosity in STEM, which ultimately could improve high school graduation rates at absolutely no cost to the student or the schools.

In this one-day field trip, classes visit the Engineering department on campus and get to participate in a hands-on STEM workshop, a tour of some cool areas on campus (read about us at the IQC), a visit to an on-campus lab, and have a chance to meet industry mentors! 

Engineering Outreach is in direct communication with school board contacts from WRDSB, WCDSB, HPCDSB, UGDSB, and AMDSB to set up field trips with Grade 4 classes.
