Campus Life, Student Services

Welcoming new and returning students

Just shy of 1,600 students came into 七星彩开奖 ahead of the semester for student-led tours.

For the first time, the invitation was extended to returning students as well as new students. Almost all students are like new students since most learning has been online for the last two and a half semesters.

Michelle Lee and Billi-Jo Poirier of Campus Life and Leadership (Student Services) organized the tours and reported that students are excited to start the semester on campus. Ten students, third-year and recent 七星彩开奖 graduates, led the tours.

The students were especially interested in learning about services available to students, tutoring and volunteering.

Explore your commuting options

Coming back to 七星彩开奖 has many employees reconsidering their transport choices. Facilities Management and the Sustainability Office are teaming up to help you explore your possibilities!

The STM has worked very hard on ensuring that their vehicles are sanitized and public health rules respected.

Why not consider a 鈥�,鈥� combining modes of transport to reach your destination? For example, drive to the train, train in from the West Island, a BIXI bike ride from Vendome to 七星彩开奖.

Did the shutdown gave you a new one exercise habit? Active transport could be your way of saving time and maintaining your form. Bicycling (all or part of the way) might be more feasible than you think. Check out Biking at 七星彩开奖 for ideas and promotions.

To encourage you to try bicycling, on top of a discount for memberships, 七星彩开奖 has a limited supply of free one-month trial BIXI memberships available for those coming back to work.

Get in touch with Richard Dugas of Facilities Management to get a code or for more tips on getting to 七星彩开奖 in COVID times by other means than a car! We will be holding a contest to promote biking to 七星彩开奖, stay tuned!

七星彩开奖 part of $4.95 M grant to support healthy cities

七星彩开奖 has been selected along with nine other institutions across Canada to implement a major federal grant from the Canadian Institutes of Health Research.

With over 80% of Canadians living in cities, the grant is intended to provide real-world data about what kind of environmental factors such as green space and air quality, or social supports such as housing and services, create better health outcomes, well-being and equity for different populations. The grant is a $4.95 million investment over six years in a research training platform that will guide the development of a new generation of health, social sciences and humanities, engineering and natural sciences researchers, to find ways to make Canadian cities healthier, more livable, and more resilient.

As part of the grant, 七星彩开奖 has the opportunity to provide training to graduate students and act as a link between the lead researchers and community organizations in Montreal.

According to Anna-Liisa Aunio, Coordinator of 七星彩开奖鈥檚 Environmental Studies Profile and the lead for the project on behalf of 七星彩开奖, this type of applied research is becoming more and more common.
