Starting this fall, all of Brock University’s academic programs will offer experiential education.

This means all Brock students will receive hands-on experience before graduation.

Here are a few examples of experiential learning opportunities;

Child and Youth Studies - Arranging an outdoor activity for elementary school students.

Sociology - Volunteering with rescue dogs.

Earth Science - Collecting rock samples in northern Ontario.

According to the Ministry of Training, Colleges and Universities; Brock grads have an employment rate of more than 90 percent, six months after graduation. That rate jumps to 96 percent after two years.
