Help shape the future of undergraduate studies at U of T
The university is asking students, staff, faculty and alumni for feedback on how to best prepare undergraduates for a lifetime of success and fulfilment, whether they want to continue their studies or enter the workforce directly after graduation. During February, students, staff and faculty across the three campuses can have their say on the future of undergraduate studies at the university during in-person consultations. Click here for dates and more info. Until Friday, March 15, they can also give their input by completing an online survey.
