Get ready for two dynamic Open House events on November 8 and 16! This is your chance to dive into campus life, meet professors and current students, and see all that Trent has to offer — across our two campuses in Peterborough and Durham Greater Toronto Area.

Before you start planning your visit, here's a quick breakdown on what you can do at our Open House and how you can make the most of your time on campus:

1. Pick your campus of interest — or visit both!

At Trent, we are one tight-knit community with two unique campus experiences. Whether you’re drawn to studying in Peterborough or Durham Greater Toronto Area, our Open House is the best way to explore what each campus has to offer.

2. Discover co-op & career opportunities

Learn all about how paid work experience is embedded into your program through paid co-op work terms in 30+ programs. In addition, 100% of Trent programs also offer courses that feature experiential learning, such as labs and research, capstone projects, and placements and internships.

3. Attend welcome sessions from Trent leaders

Hear directly from Dr. Michael Khan, provost and vice-president, academic to learn about everything that makes Trent so special in Peterborough. At Trent Durham GTA, join Dr. Scott Henderson, vice president and head of Trent Durham for a welcome session about the distinguishing elements of learn experience at this campus.

At both campus Open House events, expert faculty will be hosting discussions on today’s hot button issues.
