In Sheridan's Honours BBA (Finance) program, you'll gain the fundamental business finance skills you need to help organizations succeed.
What you'll learn
Financial management teams face enormous pressure to provide strategic and timely insights for effective business decision-making. Our Honours BBA (Finance) program prepares you for this, giving you a solid grounding in business fundamentals and teaching you the operational and commercial aspects of the finance function, including investment finance.

An innovative learning model
Our Honours Bachelor of Business Administration (BBA) programs feature an innovative experiential learning model that prepares you for the workplace. You won't get a lecture-style environment where you're asked to memorize content. Instead, you'll use collaboration, hands-on learning and experimentation to actively apply your knowledge and solve business problems that simulate the real world.

This program is ideal for those who know they want to work in health sciences, but aren’t sure which career path is right for them, or are currently underprepared for other health sciences programs. There’s a strong focus on academic advising to support your success, and you’ll be introduced to a range of possible career paths in the health sciences field.

What you'll gain
Through this program, you’ll prepare for further study by gaining the necessary background knowledge in biology, chemistry, mathematics and anatomy and physiology. Some of the college credits you’ll earn are transferable to other programs at Sheridan and may be accepted at other colleges as well.

Transfer opportunities
When you've completed this program, you can transfer to the University Profile or apply to university or one of these Sheridan programs: Animal Care, Fundamentals of Fitness Leadership, Practical Nursing, Pharmacy Technician, Community Pharmacy Assistant, Veterinary Technician, Kinesiology and Health Promotion, Athletic Therapy.

The two-year program focuses on technical and professional skills required to work in a variety of Health Service settings. You will learn to use specialized medical software, OHIP billing, electronic calendaring and scheduling, and communication software applications.

Things you'll learn

• Medical office procedures.

Medical Simulation or Field Placement
When you have successfully completed the first three terms and have met a prescribed GPA, you have the option of choosing either a Medical Simulation course or Field Placement (two days per week). Both options prepare you for entry-level administrative support positions in a medical office or setting. This is an excellent opportunity to gain work experience and evaluate different career paths.

Our new Mechanical Engineering degree gets you working with industry-standard advanced technology in your first semester.
Stand out from the crowd as a job-ready engineering graduate
With rapid changes in industry, companies are seeking engineering graduates who are ready to work from day one. Few engineering degrees in Canada will give you the same level of hands-on experience with industry-standard advanced technology. You’ll also practice finding solutions for real-world problems in the industry and the community.

Work with the latest mechanical engineering technology
Sheridan’s labs are like no other in Ontario. Get a degree that prepares you to work with 3D printers, robotics, rapid prototyping, integrated energy systems including solar, wind, and geothermal energy, HVAC systems, water jet technology, advanced mechatronics system equipment and more. At Sheridan, we believe the best way to learn is to roll up your sleeves and get hands-on.

Stand out from the field as a computer engineering technologist! Sheridan’s advanced diploma program builds on the two-year Computer Engineering Technician diploma by teaching you how to integrate software and hardware components. When you graduate, you’ll know how to design, build, test, implement and maintain embedded devices, computer applications and network systems.

Demonstrate your skills through a capstone project and co-op
Prove yourself to employers before you graduate! In your third year of studies, you’ll put your expertise to work in a capstone project that will be showcased to industry. You’ll also have the option of a three-term co-op placement, allowing you to graduate with one year of work experience. Some of our past students have secured employment as a result of co-op participation.

Work towards your degree or other certifications
When you graduate, you’ll have completed all academic requirements for professional certification with the Ontario Association of Certified Engineering Technicians and Technologists. You may also be able to transfer into the third year of degree programs at various universities and colleges, including Sheridan’s engineering and applied computing degrees (some bridge courses may be required).

It takes more than lectures and textbooks to prepare you to work with real-life clients. Apply knowledge acquired from your kinesiology degree in a clinical environment through a blend of problem-based learning and supervised placements. When you graduate, you’ll be armed with 728 hours of hands-on experience — more than you’ll get in any other kinesiology program in Ontario.

Position yourself and your clients for success
Every client is different, presenting unique challenges that require unique solutions. Learn how to plan, implement and evaluate programs that are customized to meet their complex needs, grounded in coaching and communication strategies that build confidence and keep them motivated. You’ll also develop the skills needed to run your own clinic in a sustainable, ethical and professional manner.

Be supported by exercise science experts
Professors in this program also teach in Sheridan’s kinesiology degree and have real-world experience working with clients in many capacities — including clinical exercise rehab, chronic disease prevention and management, injury rehab, high performance, and strength and conditioning. They will closely guide you through problem-based curriculum specifically designed for clinical professionals.

Sheridan's Chemical Engineering Technology advanced diploma offers education in both lab and industry areas, but stands out for its emphasis on true chemical engineering.
