Viewbook 2021/2022 2021/2022 INTERNATIONAL VIEWBOOK international.humber.ca 1 Welcome to Humber I would like to start by thanking you for taking the time to consider Humber as an option. We are focused on your future and take the responsibility of your education very seriously. I am glad Canada is on your ‘consideration list’ of education options around the world. We have been educating thousands of international students from around the world – more than 130 countries at last count – for many years. Students have told us that they chose Canada, Toronto and Humber because of our global outlook, incredible international sensibilities and tremendous career-focused education. Our student surveys tell us that we continue to exceed student expectations on these items. Over the past year, we have all had to face changes in the way we live and learn beyond what any of us had imagined. Even with all the change, some things have remained constant. Humber’s commitment to ongoing quality education remains, and can be seen in the incredible investment and energy we have put into making our online studies unique, relevant and student-focused. Our faculty members have fully embraced online learning and are developing truly innovative ways to engage with their students and for students to engage with each other, from wherever you are in the world. Our commitment goes beyond the classroom. We will continue to provide you and your fellow students with career-focused education and connections to industry in a supportive and student-focused environment. I look forward to welcoming you to Humber soon!

With our diverse experiential learning opportunities ranging from work placements, internships, applied research projects and more, you’ll be even closer to your dream career by the time you graduate. 3 Vania Gunawardi, Jakarta, Indonesia DIPLOMA, PHOTOGRAPHY Choosing the right institution was very important to me – a college that would provide me with the best learning experience and make me career ready. Photography was my passion and now I wanted to pursue it as a career. Humber, with their expert faculty, modern labs, devices that meet the industry standards and multiple resource centres, was exactly the kind of college I was looking for; I wanted to learn from the very best. As part of my program at Humber, I also decided to go to Otago Polytechnic in New Zealand for a summer abroad experience. The idea of gaining academic credits while travelling sounded like a perfect summer plan to me. It was a chance to meet students from around the world and learn the cultural history of the country. I gained valuable Canadian experience by working as a Global Learning Student Ambassador and also as a photographer for the Humber Hawks. Both jobs provided me with a mix of skills and experiences that I can add to my resumé, which is going to be very useful for my future employment. When I look back to my first day on campus and remember how overwhelmed I was, I feel fortunate to have come this far with the support of many, including my peer mentor. I have so many new friends now and have expanded my network by getting to know new people in the industry. Watch why each year 6,500 international students from 130+ countries choose Humber College tinyurl.com/HumberGlobalStudentStories 4 HUMBER INTERNATIONAL VIEWBOOK 2021| 2022 Toronto: Canada’s International City Toronto is one of the world’s most multicultural cities and it’s a welcoming place for everyone who visits, lives and studies here.

I live in Vaughan which is located in the north of the city, but Toronto’s Entertainment District is where I socialize with my friends. Torontonians are very friendly, and the city is culturally diverse, which is why you can easily become friends with people from all over the world. During summer I enjoy biking around the city and in winter I like tobogganing. If you are a basketball fan then I suggest you watch a Toronto Raptors game, our professional basketball team. 1 Mercer Quality of Living City Ranking 2019. 2 Economist Intelligence Unit’s 2019 Safe Cities Index (covering digital security, health security, infrastructure security and personal security) . 3 QS 2019. 6 HUMBER INTERNATIONAL VIEWBOOK 2021| 2022 Our Locations North Campus Humber’s North Campus is located in the northwest part of Toronto and is easily accessible by Toronto public transit.

  • Colleges Ontario Network for Industry Innovation
    Colleges Ontario Network for Industry Innovation CONII PROJECT CONII is a three-year project funded by the Ontario government. It is a network of ten Ontario Colleges that was formed in November, 2006, to advance the commercialization of applied research in partnership with industry. Seneca is the lead college and the other colleges are Algonquin, Centennial, Conestoga, Fanshawe, George Brown, Humber, Niagara, Sheridan and St. Clair. Each college represents an industry sector node. Centennial and George Brown jointly form the Health and Life Sciences sector node. Commercialization of applied research or technology transfer is gaining increasing support from both federal and provincial governments and private sector funders such as venture capitalists. Recognition is also growing among businesses that would like to market launch their products and services as quickly as possible and achieve profitability. CONII is especially well positioned to partner with industry in joint commercialization projects because the colleges have always responded to industry needs and their research has always aimed for practical outcomes. The potential for innovation is especially strong for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and again, the SME segment is where the colleges are perceived as highly approachable and therefore engage most successfully. OBJECTIVES The short term objectives of CONII are to provide seed funding for Proof of Principle (POP) projects, jointly executed by an SME business and a CONII college. Typically the funding per project would be $10,000 and the duration would be 12 months or less. Each CONII college plans to engage in two POP projects per year. OUTCOMES A concrete deliverable is expected to result from a POP project, which would lead to further development towards a commercially successful deliverable.
