Core Goals
Four institution-wide goals are fundamental to Canadian Imperial College’s vision, mission, values, and future success:
01.
Teaching and Learning: To provide an unsurpassed, multicultural, in-depth, and interactive learning experience led by qualified teachers and administrators. We are committed to developing front-runners who will make a difference globally by becoming innovators and pathfinders. By adopting academic and experiential learning techniques, our students will gain the necessary knowledge and skills required to be first in line for jobs in an evolving economy.
02.
Graduate Employability: With our internship programs, students are able to work while studying, form working relationships in the community and within their chosen industries. Private Post-secondary institutions, such as Canadian Imperial College, will continue to have higher rates in regard to graduation and employment rates and this is because private colleges have higher compliance and reporting requirements, with more in-depth expectations than those of public institutions.
03.
International Outlook and Community: We pride ourselves on being a culturally rich college. We welcome students all year round from diverse backgrounds and nationalities. As an international student, you will be a valued member of our college community, get to interact with faculty and students from different countries, backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives. This way our students get to gain a global perspective for better career options.
04.
Accountability: We are fully committed to the success of our students, staff, faculty, and the communities we serve. Our mission and mandate objectives guide our actions as an institution. Canadian Imperial College will pursue partnerships that benefit students. We will aslo work with the government by providing data to inform local interventions and supports.
