CENTRE FOR FOOD (CFF)The W. Galen Weston Centre for Food (CFF) is Durham Region’s first-ever post-secondary presence focused on the field-to-fork concept, which is based on the harvesting, storing, processing, packaging, sale and consumption of food – in particular the production of local food for local consumers.

Durham College has adopted this concept and applied it to a diverse range of programs that crossover traditional academic schools with the curriculum, faculty expertise and equipment required to implement field-to-fork, built into several of the college’s programs. The CFF is also home to a number of hospitality-focused programs from Culinary Management to Horticulture – Food and Farming. Whether you want to be in the kitchen, or in the field, the CFF has you covered.

Co-operative Education (Co-op) officeCo-op is a model of education that integrates a student’s academic learning with workplace learning in fields relevant to the student’s academic and personal goals. Similar to an academic course, work terms are a mandatory component to this form of experiential learning. Services are available and supports are dedicated to co-op student success.

Co-op provides students in identified programs with the opportunity to gain paid work experience and apply in-class learning while exploring their chosen field through a planned sequence of academic semesters and at least one work term (this varies by program). Programs with co-op options require prospective students to first apply to the regular program and once they become Durham College students, they may apply to transfer to the co-op option of their program during their first year of study. Enrolment in co-op

is limited and the processes for securing a work term with an employer are competitive.

International students should note that by entering the co-op option of a program it may extend the overall duration of their program and therefore create the need for an amendment to their study permit which does have a cost attached. International students must meet with the International Education office to receive instruction and documentation to apply for a co-op work permit to ensure that their status in Canada is valid at all times.

STUDENT WELLNESS

Campus Health CentreA happy and healthy campus community is very important. As a Durham College student, you have access to the Campus Health Centre (CHC), which provides the highest level of health care to students. Our mission statement is the student’s health experience comes first. The Centre includes a medical clinic where you can be seen and treated by physicians and nurses. It also houses a pharmacy, Fit4sport (chiropractic and physiotherapy) and a naturopathic doctor. The Mental Health Services team has grown this year to include three mental health nurses and access to a psychiatrist via new technology (personal computer videoconferencing). A mental health nurse is also available at the Whitby campus. Our support staff are amazing. Just call or visit us in the Campus Recreation and Wellness Centre in Room G1030.

“The ESL program has been a good experience for me. It has helped me become more comfortable in Canada since I did not speak the local language and needed help learning how to communicate in English. The instructors worked with me to improve my speaking, reading, grammar and writing. I also worked with an advisor who has helped me in my schooling and different activities on campus and off to adjust more easily into Canadian culture and the school system.”

Stéphane Ahanda from Cameroon Water Quality Technician graduate

“The International Education office has been a great support since my arrival in Canada. Being an international student, I had to take English as a second language, which gave me a great opportunity to meet the International team. They have always been there for me to answer any kind of question that I might have. They helped me through the process of choosing my courses and changing my program. They always encourage me no matter the situation.”
