About Douglas College

Higher Education
1001-5000

Douglas College is one of the largest degree-granting colleges in British Columbia, educating close to 25,000 students a year. With two major campuses - one in New Westminster and one in Coquitlam - directly on SkyTrain lines, Douglas is one of the most accessible post-secondary institutions in Metro Vancouver.

Douglas offers the most bachelor’s degrees and post-degree programs of any college in B.C., and is noted for combining the academic foundations of a university with the career-ready skills of a college. Because of the College’s strong academic base, the majority of these for-credit courses transfer to different research universities in B.C. and across Canada, providing students with flexible pathways to reach their academic goals.

Over 960 experienced, teaching-focused faculty bring both academic rigor and real-world experience to the classroom at Douglas. Outside the classroom, over 900 other employees work together to create a friendly, inspiring, supportive and respectful environment.
