Every September before classes, the University of Manitoba Engineering Society (UMES) hosts its Engineering Orientation (EngO) for the sole purpose of helping direct-entry freshmen make a smooth transition from high school to the Faculty of Engineering.
EngO is planned out and run by your fellow engineering students, so we all know what you are and will be going through in your first year. Almost everyone you will interact with during the two days of EngO plays a role in the faculty (students, professors, advisers, etc.). We will be able to answer your questions and, more importantly, you will be able to make important connections that will serve you throughout your time in the faculty and beyond.
