The Learning Communities program in the Faculty of Arts and Science is designed to support the growth and development of students. Our First-Year Learning Communities looks to improve the transition to life at university for first-year students. Our Second-Year Learning Communities, a pilot program, connects second-year students in the same program of study.
To achieve this, our program relies on a team of dedicated and engaged upper-year students to act as peer mentors. As a peer mentor you will design and facilitate bi-weekly sessions for students, collaborate with colleagues, staff and faculty as well as build a community among your students.
We offer FLCs in the following streams of study: Actuarial Science, Computer Science, Economics, Humanities, Life Sciences, Mathematics, Rotman Commerce and Social Science.
