Upcoming Wellness Events
We want you to be well and thrive in Engineering. Each term we provide a variety of events and workshops based on student feedback. These initatives are designed to support you, provide a needed break (even if it is short) and offer insights into skills you will need across your lifetime. (If you think Engineering is tough, wait until you try full-time "adulting!")
We are collaborating with EngSoc to bring you a collection of workshops on wellness topics requested by students!
In addition to workshops and events presented by ENGWellness, there are additional events and workshops hosted by Campus Wellness. Please join us for these fun sessions (there might even be snacks). For more details and registration where needed, click on the links below.
