Students from Pakistan have started giving priority to study in the college/university of Canada, as they believe that technologically advanced and industrialized nation, Canada maintains a diversified economy that is heavily reliant upon its abundant natural resources and upon trade particularly with the United States, with which Canada has had a long and complex relationship. The Government of Canada plays an important support role in education, universities are the degree-granting institutions offering undergraduate degrees (bachelor’s and honors) and graduate degrees (master’s degrees and doctorates). Colleges offer vocationally oriented programs of study leading to certificates anddiplomas, although a few applied arts degrees are granted that are equivalent to, or lead to the university level. In general, the postsecondary school year begins in September and continues to the end of April or early May, although some institutions operate on a year-round semester system..
Major Cities of Canada:
Canada’s capital is Ottawa, but the largest city in Canada is Toronto (ON, Canada), following by Montreal (QC, Canada) and then Vancouver (BC, Canada). Other major cities in Canada are: Victoria(BC, Canada), Edmonton (AB, Canada), Calgary (AB, Canada) and Winnipeg (MB, Canada). The Largest province in Canada is Quebec. However the largest population is in Ontario with capital city of Toronto whose population is almost half of the population in Ontario.
Ottawa is the capital city of Canada, which sprawls along the southern side of the Ottawa River. Ottawa is a government town, dominated physically and spiritually by the neo-Gothic Parliament Buildings. A population of 1,200,000 makes Ottawa the fourth-largest urban area in Canada. Ottawa has ranked sixth in the world in terms of its quality of life by the Corporate Resources Group, a Swiss-based management firm.
Education System:
The Canadian education system encompasses both publicly funded and private schools, from kindergarten through to pre-university. Education is a provincial responsibility under the Canadian constitution, which means there are significant differences between the education systems of the different provinces. However, standards across the country are uniformly high. In Canada there are 10 provinces and three territories, each with their own way of organizing education. Education is regulated by each separate provincial government through the individual ministries of education. The ministries of education oversee smaller bodies called boards of education or district school boards (such as the Toronto District School Board), which oversee the individual schools.
Canadian universities are internationally known for their high quality of teaching and research. Degrees from Canadian universities are considered to be equivalent to those from American and other Commonwealth universities. Most universities offer a broad range of courses and a full range of degrees from undergraduate to doctorate and can also offer certificates and professional degrees. Graduate students do not usually attend as many classes as undergraduate students. Much of their time is spent working independently on large projects, presentations, essays or thesis papers.
The university year usually runs from September to May.
To qualify for a degree program at most English-speaking universities, students for whom English is not a first language must have passed an English examination test. The TOEFL is commonly accepted but Canadian universities often have their own tests for students or may accept other English tests such as the IELTS.
A university college offers university degrees as well as college diploma and certificate programs. Students can expect to find a wide range of program choices, including English as a Second Language (ESL) programs.
Community Colleges and technical institutes have the primary function of responding to the training needs of business, industry and the public service sectors. They also meet the educational needs of vocationally oriented secondary school graduates, employment-seeking university graduates. Colleges maintain renowned Centers of Excellence in many fields such as information technology, mining, the environment, and hospitality and tourism, health, business, academic upgrading, applied arts, social services, adult literacy, and university preparation.
A technical/career college is a privately owned and operated school with the main objective of preparing students for the job market after a short period of instruction. The emphasis at technical/career colleges is on practical skills over a broad range of programs. They specialize in specific areas such as businesses, computers, and secretarial skills.
