About Dalhousie
The University
Dalhousie is the largest university in the Maritime Provinces, with almost 17 000 students enrolled. Dal has a great reputation nationally and internationally, attracting great faculty and research funding, especially in the Faculty of Medicine.
Dal has three main campuses:
Studley Campus, sometimes known as “main campus” – covering most of the undergraduate and graduate programs, and located around and along University Avenue, from Oxford St. up to Robie St.
Sexton Campus, formerly known as TUNS – containing the Faculty of Engineering and located between Queen St. and Barrington St.
Carleton Campus, on University Avenue right in between Robie St. and Summer St., con- taining most of the Health Sciences faculties, including Medicine, Dentistry, Nursing, and Pharmacy.
As you might have guessed, Med students spend almost all of their time on the Carleton Campus – more specifically in the Sir Charles Tupper Building. This building contains our lecture halls, lockers, labs, tutorial rooms, and med lounge. However, the rest of the university has a lot to offer, so don’t be afraid to explore.
More coming soon!
