Niagara boasts two highly ranked post-secondary institutions. Brock University, one of Canada’s top post-secondary institutions, is the only university in Canada located in a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, at the center of Canada’s Niagara Peninsula on the Niagara Escarpment. It is a comprehensive university with strong academic programming and cutting-edge research done in world-class facilities, and offers more than 120 undergraduate and graduate programs. With more than 18,000 students from 100+ countries in seven diverse Faculties, Brock is small enough to be intimate, but big enough to be world-class.
Niagara College features two campuses located in Welland and Niagara-on-the-Lake, and has grown to become a leader in applied education and training, consistently ranked among Ontario’s top colleges for student satisfaction. More than 9,000 full-time students study in over 100 diploma, graduate certificate, apprenticeship and Bachelor’s Degree programs. There are also more than 15,000 part time students registered each year in 600+ credit, vocational and general interest programs.
