Through college programs that offer degrees, students gain both the practical skills and the theoretical background to give them the extensive subject knowledge employers are seeking.
1. College-Level Degree Programs Offer Unique
Experience
Earning a university or college degree is a proud moment. For those who are
looking to earn such a degree while gaining a more hands-on experience,
typically found at college level, fret not. Centennial College offers two
technology-based degree programs suited just for you.
The first such college program at Centennial College is Software Systems
Design, which is the only of its kind in the province and has a unique emphasis
on system design, a blend of technology and business subjects as well as
industry placement. Students of this college program specialize in mobile
application development or service oriented architecture and cloud computing.
As such, they are prepared for areas such as software development, software
engineering, systems analysis, business analysis, web application development
and more.
The second college program at Centennial College that results in a degree is
Computer and Communication Networks. Thanks to a unique blend of
technology and business subjects that offers an innovative balance between the
practical and the theoretical backgrounds for which employers are looking,
students can go on to find employment as Project Management Analysts, IT
program managers, Technician Account Managers, Business Account Managers
and much more.
Although these programs are technically the only degree programs that are
completely solely at Centennial College, the institution also offers the
opportunity for students to split their post-secondary experience between
college and university studies. That's because of the college's agreements with
Ryerson University and University of Toronto. With Ryerson, students can
participate in a Bachelor of Science Nursing program. Meanwhile, the college
degree programs offered in collaboration with UofT include: Applied
Microbiology, Environmental Science and Technology, Journalism, New Media
Studies and Paramedicine. Lastly, there is a Bridging To Software Systems
Design offering that makes it possible to complete the Software System Design
(SSD) degree in two years, while allowing students to keep a full-time job if
they have a diploma in software and are working in the field.

2. Attending a degree programs at college level can be advantageous as it still
entails studying via a college structure that includes a focus on practical skills
and theoretical background. Additionally, these college programs are
delivered in small classrooms, which allows for more peer-to-peer interaction
and networking with professors. Thanks to a limited number of students in each
class, instructors get to know their students, which make for a more beneficial
learning experience. Lastly, as previously mentioned, degree programs at
college also offer a hands-on approach that allows students to gain skills they
need before graduating and entering their chosen field. Centennial's college
degrees meet rigorous Ontario Ministry standards (provincial standards).
