Oakville | Brampton | Mississauga sheridancollege.ca
The largest arts school in the country, Sheridan is ranked the No. 1 animation school in Canada (No. 2 internationally, excluding the U.S.) and has produced a legacy of Oscar winners. It offers 130-plus unique programs across five faculties in such fields as technology, health care, digital media, applied computing, engineering, business, skilled trades and design. Sheridan is also among Canada’s top musical theatre schools; past students have incubated new musical theatre works, most famously the Tony-winning Come From Away.
A leader in providing work-integrated learning experiences, such as co-op, internships, apprenticeships and practicums, Sheridan offers a range of credentials, including certificates, diplomas, advanced diplomas, graduate certificates, and 28 bachelors degrees (each degree requires a minimum 420 hours of work placement).
Core to the Sheridan experience is a philosophy that challenges students to take an interdisciplinary, collaborative approach to problem solving. “At Sheridan, we pride ourselves on fostering an environment of innovation and resilience, focused on inspiring students to explore new ways of thinking,” says Janet Morrison, president and vice-chancellor. “The world is changing, and Sheridan is developing students’ capacity to thrive on that change, setting them up for successful and fulfilling careers.” Students agree, rating Sheridan among the top GTA colleges for the quality of their learning experience and their program’s usefulness for their future careers.
Home to the Pilon School of Business, the Hazel McCallion Campus is expanding with a 70,000-square-foot complex that will house recreational/athletics spaces and student services.
