Why choose BCIT?

Hands-on career training

Students

We call our approach applied training, because every program at BCIT requires students to practice their new skills through internships, industry-sponsored student projects, practicum assignments or cooperative (work/ study) training. Approximately 60 per cent of your education will be in a classroom, whereas 40 per cent of your training will occur in a real workplace scenario. This applied, practical focus on education, as well as our partnerships with industry, results in programs that are relevant and up-to-date, and produces graduates who truly are job-ready.
High job placement rate

BCIT graduates are in demand in the job market, both here and around the world. The vast majority of our graduates secure employment related to their BCIT education within a few months of graduation. For more information about graduate employment outcomes for your program, please use the program database to find your program.
Many paths to choose from

BCIT offers more than 250 full-time, part-time, and distance & online learning programs in an enormous array of disciplines. Students advance their careers through specialized training in:

* Business & Media
* Computing & Information Technology
* Engineering, Applied & Natural Sciences
* Health Sciences
* Trades & Apprenticeship

Industry-current faculty

BCIT draws its instructors directly from industry; they are proven professionals who have returned to the classroom to share their experiences with tomorrow's leaders. And, BCIT's reputable part-time instructors are current industry professionals who partner with BCIT to prepare a skilled future workforce. All instructors are encouraged to return to industry periodically for retraining, so that students are kept abreast of trends and developments in each field.

Canada's premier polytechnic institution

BCIT is neither a university nor a community college. We are Canada's leading polytechnic institution. That means we offer career-focused technical education, and we grant credentials that span from trades certification through to applied degrees. A polytechnic environment promotes extensive partnerships with business and industry, and dedicates significant resources to applied research and technology transfer activities. BCIT is committed to contributing toward a vibrant global economy. Our focuses on applied research and technology transfer mean BCIT is in the position to promote entrepreneurial activity, and therefore to contribute to the creation of value added jobs, both here and around the world.
