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.
