It provides 94 undergraduate degrees, 48 graduate programs, and 6 associate degrees in a variety of fields.

The Biodiversity Institute of Ontario is the world’s first high-volume DNA barcoding facility, allowing for the rapid identification of millions of species. Faculty are expected to enter over 500,000 barcode analyses per year. Between 2009 and 2011, the university’s School of Engineering underwent a $50 million expansion in the form of new construction and renovations. This is in response to the establishment of new mechanical, biomedical, and computer engineering programs, increased enrollment in undergraduate and graduate programs, and increased research in sustainability-related fields. Alexander Hall is a teaching and research facility for the environment. The Animal Cancer Centre is Canada’s first comparative cancer research institute.
