A message from the President
Welcome to Carleton - Canada's Capital University
Among the best comprehensive universities in Canada, Carleton University is a dynamic, research-intensive university, committed to ensuring an outstanding learning experience for its students.
Students are at the very centre of what we do at Carleton. The
University is constantly striving to develop new and innovative programs to help students succeed. Indeed the most important measure of the University's success is the success of our students.
Our student services, residence programs, recreation programs and facilities, and extracurricular opportunities provide our students with an experience that goes well beyond the classroom and the lab.
Carleton offers 65 programs of study in areas as diverse as public affairs, journalism, engineering, high technology, and international studies. We are very proud that our classrooms are filled with some 23,000 of the brightest students from across the country and more than 100 countries worldwide.
More than 1,800 committed faculty and staff work diligently to support the efforts of our students. In understanding the crucial role they play in the University's daily successes, we are committed to recruiting the highest quality individuals to join Carleton's diverse and dedicated team.
Carleton researchers are world-renowned for their work. Carleton's innovative, interdisciplinary, and international approach to research and discovery has garnered a formidable reputation, and has been a contributing factor in the continued increase in external funding invested in Carleton research.
In this, my first year as President of Carleton University, I am very much looking forward to meeting with students, faculty, staff and alumni, to hear your thoughts on how we can work together to allow Carleton to grow and flourish further.
Carleton truly is a great university, getting even better.
David Atkinson, President and Vice-Chancellor |
