Brock University, located in a UNESCO biosphere reserve in the scenic Niagara region, offers more than 120 undergraduate and graduate programs across seven faculties, led by about 600 faculty. The school promotes experiential learning and community outreach, and has a massive co-op program: 1,200 to 1,300 students complete a work term annually with more than 400 industry partners in the Niagara region and beyond. “With its renowned student experience, dynamic teaching and research, breadth of experiential education opportunities and ongoing commitment to equity, diversity, inclusion and reconciliation, Brock is a truly transformative place where people come together to reimagine the future through curiosity, creativity and courage,” says president Lesley Rigg. World-class infrastructure includes the Cairns’ Family Health and Bioscience Research Complex and the Marilyn I. Walker School of Fine and Performing Arts. The school draws international students from 107 countries. The Zone, the school’s expanded fitness and recreation centre, is central to the school’s fitness culture. The Brock–Niagara Validation, Prototyping and Manufacturing Institute is now open. A collaborative hub connecting Brock with industry partners in the health and disease, agricultural, chemical manufacturing and environmental sectors, it offers access to research expertise and state-of-the-art equipment.
