Announcing exciting upcoming changes to Durham College Academic departments

Durham College (DC) is excited to announce upcoming changes to how we organize and refer to our academic departments.

In order to better reflect the modern world of work, we will be moving some of our programs from their current academic schools to new homes. These moves will result in the clustering of programs that share similar fields and disciplines, thus allowing us to more readily maximize synergies and realize collaboration.

In addition, the departmental term ‘Schools’ will change to ‘Faculties’, adopting the contemporary language used within post-secondary education.

Our new Faculties will be:

  • Faculty of Business
  • Faculty of Health Sciences (HS)
  • Faculty of Hospitality & Horticultural Science (HHS)
  • Faculty of Liberal Studies (LS)
  • Faculty of Media, Art & Design (MAD)
  • Faculty of Science, Engineering & Information Technology (SEIT)
  • Faculty of Skilled Trades & Apprenticeship (STA)
  • Faculty of Social & Community Services (SCS)

All changes will take effect on Monday, June 20. A list of each program and its respective faculty is available on our website.
