Overview

The University of Guelph-Humber (UofGH) was founded in 2002 as a collaboration between the University of Guelph and Humber College Institute of Technology & Advanced Learning to “produce a well-prepared university graduate”. It is located in the Etobicoke district of Toronto on Humber College’s North Campus.

The University was the first in Ontario to offer an opportunity for students to earn both a university honours degree and a diploma in 4-years of full-study time in just one location. With the University’s focus on global partnerships, students can broaden their horizons through Study Abroad opportunities available because of the international exchange agreements UofGH has formed with other global universities worldwide.
