Since opening their doors in 1967 in Welland and expanding into other parts of the Niagara region, they have grown to become a leader in applied education and training, and they’re consistently ranked among Ontario’s top colleges for student satisfaction.
From its humble beginnings, delivering a handful of programs at its original Welland Campus, Niagara College has grown to more 10,000 students studying in more than 100 diploma, bachelor’s degree and advanced level programs. They’re involved in projects and partnerships around the globe – preparing graduates who are truly world-ready.
The temporary classrooms that marked the first days of NC have evolved into some of the most unique learning environments in Canada: leading-edge technology labs, specialized classrooms, on-campus spa, greenhouse, restaurant and Canada’s first Teaching Winery and Teaching Brewery – learning enterprises that have become a model of applied education.
