University

Universities are educational institutions mostly dedicated to research. Endowed with a more formal character, they offer bachelor, master and doctorate programs, preparing students for academic life and research.

Students usually enroll for a 36 to 40 months bachelor program. Those willing to continue their academic studies may do so by taking a master or doctorate program.

While involved with University studies, students will have the opportunity to take part in various research works, which should lead to the writing of an undergraduate thesis. At the end of the program, students will be qualified for the labor market or for continuing their studies at post-graduate levels.

Study & Work

Higher-education programs students will get a 20-hour/week working visa during their working-study program and a 40-hour/week working visa during vacation. However, one of the most important benefits is being allowed to apply for an open work permit after completion of the higher-education program.

After a graduate or post-graduate course, international students may apply for the PGWP – Post-Graduation Work Permit, which will be assigned for a period proportional to the period of studies in the country. This type of visa allows you to work in any Canadian Province without restriction of working hours.

After a year of services provided to a Canadian company, students may qualify to apply for a permanent visa, which grants them permanent resident status. Canadian citizenship may be requested after residing for 3 years in the Canadian soil.
