In addition to excellence in teaching, we offer students practical learning opportunities in real-world settings through internships, co-ops, practicums, research projects and more. In fact, 85 per cent of upper-year undergraduate students participate in hands-on experiential learning.
Our professors, researchers, students and other faculty experts engage with 300-plus industry and community partners like Ontario Power Generation, SickKids, Grandview Children’s Centre and IBM.
Equipped with this entrepreneurial spirit and the capacity to adapt to changes in technology, our graduates consistently find employment in their chosen fields—at a rate above the provincial average.
