Sheridan offers an innovative learning environment celebrated for academic excellence, applied research and creativity. With a student population including students from 40 countries around the world, Sheridan prides itself on having a culture which is both diverse and inclusive.
Sheridan's reputation for excellence is due in large measure to the achievements of 78,000 alumni, who contribute in a wide variety of fields, including digital communication, design, performing and visual arts, computing, early childhood education, engineering sciences, allied health, and business.
Sheridan delivers quality programming through its five academic schools:
- Animation, Arts and Design

- Business
- Community and Liberal Studies
- Continuing Education and Corporate Training
Sheridan’s success is directly related to the quality of faculty, facilities and equipment integral to a successful learning environment. Today, more than 40 per cent of academic programs are delivered in an internet-enhanced environment. Sheridan’s innovation leadership is reflected in the Sheridan Centre for Animation and Emerging Technologies (SCAET), which opened in 2000.
Learning opportunities at Sheridan are enhanced by the integration of successes in applied research, led by the Visualization Design Institute and Sheridan Elder Research Centre, as well as a new Centre for Advanced Manufacturing and Design Technologies.
