Canada. With a comprehensive range of programs, small class sizes,
outstanding student services and high-quality instruction, Camosun
College will help you to reach your academic and career goals.
Living in Victoria
Victoria is the capital city of the province of British Columbia with a
population of about 350,000. The city is located on the south tip of
Vancouver Island and has the best climate in Canada. In Victoria, you
can enjoy clean air, mild temperatures year round, and unparalleled
access to both the great outdoors and an urban lifestyle.
Work Experience
Camosun’s students benefit from our established co-operative
education programs – paid work experience related to your field of
study. Assistance is given to find a suitable job and employers report
a high probability of hiring graduates of co-op programs over those
students without work experience.

the supervision of your instructors. Students at Camosun receive
