 Hi there, I'm Brenda O'Neill, Dean of the Faculty of Public Affairs. This is a really important time for many high school students because it's when you consider all of the different university programs that are out there and which of these you want to apply to. To help you make that choice, I'd like to tell you a little bit about the kind of student who comes to study in one of the programs in the Faculty of Public Affairs. Like you, our students are intelligent, curious, and excited about learning. Like you, they want to have educational opportunities that provide them with direct workplace experience. Like you, they want opportunities for conducting research one-on-one with faculty members. And like a number of you, they want some type of international experience, one that expands their thinking and their networks. Our students are future leaders who want to make a difference in the world. And there's no better place to do that than right here in Canada's Capital City at Carleton University. Learning here means guest speakers and unique classroom experiences that are only available in Ottawa. We also offer a number of unique co-op, internship, and summer employment opportunities. What else should you know about the Faculty of Public Affairs? We're the only faculty of its kind in Canada. We have a number of programs that focus on the public sector, government, and other organizations that contribute to public life. We can study journalism, global studies, public policy, political science, social work, communication, law, criminology, and more. To find out more about our programs and how to apply, follow the link below. Our mission at the Faculty of Public Affairs is to build better democracy in stronger societies to address regional and global challenges of which there are many, and to foster informed citizenship in Canada and around the world. We'd love to have you join us.
