Located at Toronto’s western border, Mississauga is a culturally diverse, well-planned, growing urban city with vibrant business, sports and arts communities. The city is home to 75 of Canada’s Fortune 500 companies, and 65 of Fortune’s Global 500 companies. Its thriving business sectors include: biotechnology; biomedicine; information and communication technology; pharmaceuticals; automotive; aerospace; and financial services, giving you numerous opportunities for work experience. Mississauga is a lively city bursting with activities to keep you entertained and inspired. Enjoy live theatre performances at the Living Arts Centre, catch a hockey game at the Paramount Fine Foods Centre, or go ice skating on the rink at Celebration Square. Getting around Mississauga is easy.

When it’s time to fly home or take a vacation, Toronto Pearson International Airport—Canada’s largest and busiest with over 41 million annual passengers—is just 20 minutes away. In the centre of it all is our campus, situated in a park-like setting on the Credit River, bounded by safe residential neighbourhoods, well-served by public transit, and conveniently located near major highways. Toronto, Mississauga’s next-door neighbour and Canada’s world-renowned cultural capital, is only 30 minutes away.
