Learning Support Centre

The Learning Support Centre (LSC) at SITE allows students to work with peers and faculty members to get the academic help that they need. The Centre works collaboratively with faculty and students to ensure that learners are equipped with the skills required to engage effectively with undergraduate and graduate level coursework. While the LSC’s core support areas remain consistent across semesters, workshops and structured learning activities are periodically designed in response to the evolving needs of each cohort.

Core Support Areas

The LSC offers structured support in in strengthening students’ mathematical  understanding and problem-solving skills at the undergraduate level.

Sessions are conducted weekly in small groups and focus on:

  • Reinforcing foundational mathematical concepts
  • Clarifying coursework-related challenges
