How to get an international education experience and build a global network without leaving Canada at UCW

Research has shown that diversity in the classroom enriches the educational experience for all students.

Students learn from those whose experiences, beliefs, and perspectives differ from their own. These types of interactions can lead to more innovation and collaboration both inside and outside of the classroom.

Daily interaction with people from different countries and backgrounds offers students the opportunity to learn how to communicate differently and often more effectively than they are used to. And students who regularly interact with racially and ethnically diverse peers show improvement in their critical thinking and problem-solving skills.

Overall, when students are offered the opportunity to critically question these experiences, students can become more tolerant and tolerant, making them good citizens in an increasingly complex and pluralistic society.

In post-secondary education, especially for students aiming for post-secondary studies, it promotes personal and professional development and gives them the opportunity to expand their international network during their studies.

A strong international network allows professionals to stay abreast of global opportunities and collaborate with companies to share ideas and resources or offer complementary products or services.

Vancouver’s University Canada West (UCW) has over 8,000 students from more than 110 countries. This diversity means that local students receive the benefits of a truly multicultural experience at UCW while earning their degree in Canada.
