Typically, degree programs are associated with university. However, colleges also offer Bachelor undertakings, which have unique benefits.
- While university is known for focusing on theory, Bachelor degree offerings at college level balance lectures with hands-on training.
- Labs, case studies, field trips and role-playing are all teaching tools used at the college level to ensure that students grasp concepts.
- Practical application is carried out in specialized labs with equipment that is specially geared towards the particular program.
- All instructors have enjoyed successful careers in the field that allow them to offer a more humanized aspect to their lessons.
- While university lectures typically have 200 or more people, college bachelor degree classes are still small. This allows for class discussions, collaborative projects, presentations and more.
- Work terms offer the ultimate practical experience. During work terms, students are placed in the field to apply everything they have learned to a real world environment.
