Program description

Sustainable urban design is the practice of designing cities, towns, and communities in a way that minimizes the impact on the environment and maximizes the social, economic, and cultural benefits for current and future residents. It involves considering the long-term sustainability of a community's physical, economic, and social systems, as well as its environmental impacts in order to create a healthy, livable, and thriving place for all members of the community. Upon graduation of this one-year Ontario College Graduate Certificate, you will be prepared to enter roles in urban planning, urban design, transportation design, or land-use planning in a variety of organizations including government agencies, planning firms, engineering firms, architecture firms, and non-profit organizations.

Funded by the federal and provincial governments, OSAP is intended to promote equality of opportunity for post-secondary studies through direct financial assistance (grants and loans) for educational costs and living expenses. The amount of funding you are eligible for depends on your program, course load, educational and living expenses, and financial situation.
