Tailoring Your College Education
Making the decision to obtain a college education can be quite the task. What
program do you pick? Do you choose a co-op or non co-op program? What
institution will best suit your needs? Do you attend full-time or part time? One
thing you should not be worried about when deciding on a college education is
whether the campus from which you will be based will have the tools you need
to succeed.
Centennial College - the first Community College established in Ontario - not
only offers students reputable credentials in areas such as Business,
Communications, Media and Design; Community and Health Studies,
Engineering Technology and Applied Science; Hospitality, Tourism and Culture;
and Transportation, but it has also tailored its four campus locations to further
enhance students' college education.

building that houses a full-service library, 22 large classrooms, lab space and a
lecture theatre. A lobby, lecture theatre, fireplace lounge and several theatre-
style classrooms complete the ground floor of the building. Conventional

President's Office, the Board of Governor's Board Room, and the President's
Boardroom. Other outlets that enhance students' college education on this
campus are Hospitality, Tourism and Culture facilities such as the Horizons
Restaurant (an eatery where students from a range of programs apply their

Centennial location focuses on college education programs that deal with every
form of land and air transportation. Because Centennial boasts industry
partnerships with major manufacturers, including Honda/Acura, Toyota,

education of Transportation students is enhanced by the use of cars and car
parts these partners donate to the school. The campus also includes a fully
functional aircraft hangar, licensed by Transport Canada, complete with a
"fleet" of 10 aircraft used as training aids by the aircraft technician and
