Institution overview
Humber Polytechnic is a public postsecondary institution in Toronto, Ontario, with origins in Humber College, established in 1967. It provides applied education across vocational and higher education pathways. Its North and Lakeshore campuses support different combinations of academic programmes, facilities and student activities. Humber's credential portfolio includes certificates, diplomas, advanced diplomas, honours bachelor's degrees and Ontario graduate certificates. Programme areas span business, technology, health, community services, media, the arts and skilled trades. These credentials serve different entry points, from preparation for an initial occupation to specialised education for learners with previous postsecondary experience. Teaching combines academic knowledge with practical assignments, industry projects and work-integrated learning. Laboratories, studios and other professional learning environments support the subjects taught at each campus. Humber also publishes transfer and pathway information for students building on an existing qualification. Applicants should distinguish Humber's own programmes from partner arrangements, including the separately organised University of Guelph-Humber. The programme directory identifies the credential and delivery details for each course, while admission requirements reflect the specific academic level and field.
