Why study in Canada?

World-class, welcoming and outcome-focused — Canada is one of the world’s top study destinations, home to leading research universities, strong undergraduate universities and career-focused polytechnics, with clear pathways to work and stay after graduation.

A globally respected education

Canada hosts world-leading universities — from research giants like the University of Toronto, McGill and UBC to strong regional and undergraduate universities and career-focused polytechnics such as BCIT, NAIT and Seneca. Universities are public and provincially chartered, members of Universities Canada, and their degrees are recognised around the world.

Why international students choose Canada

  • Quality & value — top-ranked universities at lower tuition than the US, UK or Australia, especially outside the biggest cities.
  • Work while you study — eligible students can work part-time during their programme.
  • Co-op education — paid work terms are built into many degrees, giving you income and Canadian experience.
  • Stay after graduation — the Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP) can lead to permanent residence.
  • Safe & multicultural — a welcoming, diverse society and a high quality of life.

Popular fields of study

Computer science and AI, engineering, business, health sciences and the environment are among the most popular fields for international students in Canada.
