Student review [#100652] for Management and Information Technology
at Centennial College

Studying at Centennial College’s Scarborough campus has been a solid and practical experience overall. The program focuses heavily on hands-on learning, with courses covering programming, databases, and software development methodologies that reflect real industry needs. Many instructors bring actual work experience into the classroom, which helps bridge theory and practice. The campus itself is accessible and diverse, creating a welcoming environment for international and local students alike. Labs and group projects are a big part of the program, giving students a chance to collaborate and build real applications, though the quality of teaching can vary depending on the instructor.

On the downside, some facilities and resources can feel a bit limited, especially during busy periods when labs are crowded or equipment is outdated. Administrative processes can also be slow at times, which can be frustrating when dealing with course registration or support services. While the program prepares students with foundational skills, a lot of personal effort is required to stay competitive, particularly in learning newer technologies outside the curriculum. Overall, it’s a decent choice for getting started in software engineering, but students who take initiative beyond the classroom will benefit the most.
