Grade 11 and 12 students are invited to participate in a unique opportunity to learn about the Bachelor of Indigenous Environmental Science and Practice [1] program at the University of Guelph.  

How Canada has practiced environmental protection and care needs to be challenged. Together we must create a better future for all beings, and that future starts with you. Our existence is intertwined with the rocks, the plants, the finned, the furred, the feathered, the four-legged, two-legged, many legged and no-legged, those who creep and walk and swim and fly - all our relations. 

Support a world that is more respectful and responsive to all beings. In this degree, you will consider and embrace Indigenous methodologies and world views while studying Western environmental science to appreciate how the two knowledge systems can be braided together. This combination allows you to make an impact through skills and experiences grounded in Indigenous ways of knowing and being. Pursue a career in environmental science with a unique combination of perspectives to make an impact throughout Canada.

This program is like no other program in Canada and has been created with Indigenous and non-Indigenous learners in mind. Core courses address Indigenous knowledge systems, land-based teachings and Indigenous-settler relations in Canada, including the legal and political context that surrounds environmental decision-making in our country.

This event will include a program presentation and interactive panel including current students, staff and faculty to answer all your questions.

Registrants will receive a package including a University of Guelph viewbook, program brochure, and swag.

Parents/guardians, teachers, and guidance counselors are encouraged to attend.
