Education in Canada

More than 130,000 students go to study in Canada annually.
Canada is an ideal student destination as it holds learning in high regard, and has developed a mature education system. As a percentage of Gross National Product, Canada spends more on education compared to the Organisation for Economic and Co-operation and Development (OECD) average, and is ranked as the highest among G-8 countries.
Canadian students too, consistently rank among the best-in-world on international tests of Reading, Science and Mathematics, as has been established by OECD's Programme for International Student Assessment - a testament to the outstanding quality of Canadian schools. Resultantly, a Canadian degree, diploma or certificate is recognized globally as being equivalent to those from the United States and Commonwealth countries.
Popular Courses
University degrees are offered at three consecutive levels Bachelor's, Master's, and Doctoral with the possession of a degree from the ascending level generally being a prerequisite for admission to the next.
Many universities also offer Diploma and Certificate programs. Generally speaking, University diplomas and certificates require one or two years of study in a specific field or discipline.
Students at the Baccalaureate or Bachelor's level or the undergraduate level need to have passed the secondary school programme for admission to undergraduate study.
Bachelor's degrees normally require three or four years of full-time study, depending on the province or whether the program is general or specialized. An Honors Baccalaureate Degree usually signifies a higher level of academic achievement. At some universities, it requires an additional year of study.
A Master's degree typically requires two years of study after successful completion of an Honors Baccalaureate.
For a Doctoral programme
one normally needs a Master's degree. In special cases, students have been allowed to enroll directly from an Honors Baccalaureate program into a Doctoral Program. A minimum of three years and up to four or five years of study and research, as well as a dissertation are the normal requirements for a doctorate. The degree is generally known as a PhD; however, doctoral degrees may also be granted in particular fields of study, such as music (DMus) or law (LLD).
In regulated professions, such as medicine, law, education, and social work, an internship is generally required in order to obtain a license to practice.
