There's more to student life than assignments.
With seven campuses located in the heart of Ontario, Georgian provides the ultimate four-season environment. As a student, you'll be a quick trip away from one of the world's longest freshwater beaches, multiple ski and snow resorts, beautiful lakes, provincial parks, and forest trails. If you love hiking, camping, stand-up paddle boarding, or any outdoor adventure, you'll enjoy getting your education in an area many people come to for their holidays.
That doesn't mean you can’t enjoy a more urban lifestyle as a Georgian student. Our campuses are located in vibrant cities with great restaurants, bars and shopping areas. And when Toronto calls, you can take a GO Train from our Barrie Campus.
Make the most of Ontario's natural beauty.
Georgian is a leader in co-operative education.
We believe in the power of real-world opportunities – experiences that take you out of the classroom and immerse you in your industry. When you graduate, you'll have the confidence to succeed on the job, because you already have. It's also a great resumé builder and a way to differentiate yourself.
- Georgian is one of only a few Ontario colleges with programs accredited by the Canadian Association for Co-operative Education; this represents the highest standard of achievement for co-op programs in Canada.
- We have the highest percentage of students enrolled in co-op programs – more than 5,000.
- Georgian has 6,200 employer partners who offer student work experiences.
- Be your own boss and start a business as part of Georgian's eCo-op.
- Co-op work terms can lead to full-time positions after graduation.
Real-world learning means Georgian grads get jobs.
Make a positive impact in your community.
A changemaker is someone who wants to change something, then gathers the knowledge and resources to make that change happen.
We believe you have the potential to lead positive change – in your community, in your job, and in your industry. That's why we’re excited to integrate a changemaker mindset into every program. It's also part of the reason we’re the only Canadian changemaker college designated by Ashoka U.
Ashoka is about social innovation. It's about training people to consider their impact on the world and the people who live in it. Your changemaker mindset will help you be a social entrepreneur; ensuring the companies and industries you work with are part of a sustainable future – a future where we all thrive.
Don't just be part of a better future, lead it.
