Laidlaw schedule

Students who begin the Laidlaw Program in the 2nd year of their Bachelor’s studies are required to complete the entire program, including activities taking place after the completion of their Bachelor’s degree.

Please note that it is the candidate’s responsibility to ensure that the Laidlaw Program does not overlap with their academic curriculum, including compulsory inter-semester internships or courses that they may undertake.


For your information, here is the Laidlaw Program calendar for the 2024 cohort. Details and confirmed dates will be communicated to the selected students in due time.
