Message from the President

HELLO. A message from President Gervan Fearon

Welcome to Brock University. Investing in your education and professional development is one of the most important decisions you will make. At Brock, we are here to support you through the process, and give you an outstanding learning and student experience. We have all made significant adjustments in the past few months, and when our communities are able to fully reopen, you will not want to have lost time progressing towards your goals. For this reason, Brock has established outstanding courses and student engagement mechanisms, while supporting the well-being of our students, faculty and staff. This year, as the world has dealt with a level of uncertainty that none of us has ever experienced, one thing that has not changed is the value and importance of a sound education and student success.

Brock is here for you, and for all of our students. Consider academic strength: incoming students get a university that is top-5 in all of Ontario for the number of scholars who have won 3M Teaching Excellence Awards. When starting their future careers, Brock graduates have an employment rate that’s above average for Ontario universities (based on government data two years out from graduation). This success is supported by our experiential and work-integrated learning opportunities. For instance, our co-op students have a remarkable 95 per cent success rate in being hired by their previous employer. The rich Brock experience leads to your success. With 19,000 students, we are large enough to have world-class facilities and staff, but small enough that our students have an outstanding academic and personal experience with university-community involvement. Even our online programs create a sense of community and explore opportunities for direct engagement at the University as the circumstances evolve throughout the academic year. With more than 120 undergraduate and graduate programs across seven academic Faculties, you can find your future success in the pages of this Viewbook.

Come and make Brock your university. Sincerely, Gervan Fearon President and Vice-Chancellor

WE WELCOME STUDENTS FROM MORE THAN 100 COUNTRIES.

19,000 STUDENTS

SMALL ENOUGH TO BE INTIMATE, BIG ENOUGH TO BE WORLD-CLASS.
