So Many Beginnings. So Many Stories.

First time away from home, first all-nighter, first aha moment in a lecture hall. U of T was a time of new experiences and every spring, thousands of grads come back for more. These stories, photos and videos capture some of those U of T firsts.

Update your email here to stay informed about U of T Engineering-specific events.  Registration opens in late spring 2024.

Would you like help reconnecting with EngSci or EngPhys classmates for reunion?
