About

Founded in 2002, The University of Guelph-Humber became the first of its' kind within Ontario to offer students the opportunity to complete both a honours bachelor degree and diploma within four years. Through a collaboration between the University of Guelph and Humber College Institute of Technology & Advanced Learning, the University of Guelph-Humber was founded on the principle of integrating experiential learning opportunities into the traditional academic curriculum. Drawing from the expertise and knowledge of both renowned founding institutions, the University of Guelph-Humber offers students focused programs, a close-knit community with small class sizes, the chance to conduct undergraduate research, and opportunities to gain significant workplace experience. Years later, what continues to make the university unique is the integration of theory and workplace experience in all of their programs, with nearly 5,000 full-time students.

    Cooperative education (or co-operative education) and internships are methods of combining classroom-based education with practical work experience. A cooperative education experience ("co-op"), provides academic credit for structured job experience. Co-ops are full-time, paid or unpaid positions. Internships may be full-time or part-time, paid or unpaid positions.
    Even if you do NOT meet our minimum English requirement (IELTS or TOEFL), you still can get conditionally accepted in the program of your choice with the condition of completing our English program prior to starting your chosen program.
