WELCOME TO THE ORILLIA CAMPUS In 2006, the Lakehead experience expanded to Central Ontario’s beautiful cottage country, with the opening of its campus in the City of Orillia. Orillia is located within Simcoe County and in the heart of Ontario’s Lake Country.

The campus has become known for its welcoming atmosphere, innovative programs, and small, friendly community – making it one of the greatest places to learn in the country. The entire campus is fully certified as a Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED®) facility, complete with an academic building (Simcoe Hall), residence, bookstore, and open-style cafeteria. The environmental features include a green roof, geothermal energy source, water collection ponds, natural lighting, and bright, open spaces.

The Orillia campus also has a smaller, heritage downtown Orillia location, adjacent to the City’s vibrant main street and just a few blocks from the Port of Orillia and Lake Couchiching.

As a student at the Orillia campus, you will benefit from the full Lakehead experience. Walking down the halls, you will know your classmates and become part of something truly different. As a young and growing campus, you will play an important role in shaping student life at the Orillia campus.

Community service learning provides you the opportunity to link your studies with our local communities. Many of our courses allow you to contribute towards helping address critical social issues in our neighbourhoods. From food security and community gardens to fishing policy and wastewater treatment, as a student, you will have the opportunity to take knowledge into the community as well as bring community knowledge back into the university.

Throughout our extensive history in offering co-operative education, Lakehead has partnered with over 140 national and international companies including some of the following:

Amazon, Bombardier Aerospace, Bank of Canada, Facebook, IBM, Hydro One, Canadian Securities Intelligence Service, Blackberry, Boeing, WestJet, and many more.

INTERNSHIPS Many of our programs include internship opportunities. Translate the concepts and principles learned in the classroom into practical skills in the workplace. Research internships are great opportunities to enhance your field of study and can often lead to summer or even full-time employment opportunities.

UNDERGRADUATE RESEARCH Every day, we are inspiring and creating leaders. At most universities, the opportunity to get involved in research is unlikely during your undergraduate years. At Lakehead, we encourage our undergraduate students to seek out undergraduate research opportunities.

Undergraduate Research Day has become an annual tradition where undergraduate students showcase their fascinating research projects to the university community. Past projects have included wolf populations, children’s literature, and the use of medicinal plants.

SEE THE WORLD INTERNATIONAL EXCHANGE PROGRAM

Lakehead offers you a chance to immerse yourself in the dynamic culture of another country while completing your degree. During your exchange, you will remain a Lakehead student and continue to pay your regular Lakehead tuition even though you will be studying in another country!

Participation in an exchange program will enable you to broaden your learning and acquire new knowledge in a cultural environment different from your own. You may have the opportunity to learn a new language or refine your current language skills, meet new and interesting people, learn about different cultures, or even gain global competencies to enhance marketability, which will give you a competitive edge when finding employment after graduation.

Study abroad opportunities are available at partner institutions all over the world including countries such as Australia, England, France, Iceland and Sweden. Opportunities also exist for you to participate in a unique partnership, allowing you to study in Cortona, Italy and take advantage of the country’s unique Tuscan region.
