The biggest advantage of going to Canada to study art is that it is easier to immigrate, and you don't know it yet. In fact, this Canadian country has surprisingly close ties with the United States in art, music, film and other aspects. Today, teacher Yu, who graduated from Canada ACAD, talked with his classmates about four famous Canadian art schools (we start from west to east)

Emily Carr University of art design

Emily Carr University of Art and Design

Emily Carr is located on a large island near the downtown of Vancouver. Originally, it was an industrial park. The nearby area has become a place similar to Beijing 798 Art District because of the school. The art environment is thick and beautiful. This school, named Emily Carr, a Canadian expressionist female artist, was established in 1925. It is a long-standing art school in Canada.

"It is very good in pure art disciplines. Emily Carr has many government and private art projects, such as curation, participation in competitions, public welfare projects, etc. You can have many opportunities during school. " Teacher Yu, the training instructor of Natural Light Art Collection for Overseas Students, said.

Due to Vancouver's unique film and animation industry environment, all the schools have also opened many similar majors, such as digital interaction, film, video+integrated media, animation design, industrial design and other subjects.

Fees: 5000-8000 $/year

Alberta College of Art and Design

Alberta College of Art&Design

ACAD is located in the east of Calgary, Alberta, Canada, and the school is located in the urban highland. Here, you can overlook the whole city. Surrounded by the University of Calgary and South Alberta Institute of Technology. Most of all, the official date of establishment of this university was 1973. In fact, as early as 1929, it existed as the art department of South Alberta Institute of Technology.

ACAD teachers are very strong. This is due to the support of the local government. The school campus is very large and connected with South Alberta Institute of Technology. The resources of the two schools can be shared. Here, almost every professional student has their own independent studio space. When you enter a professional department, it is generally the lecturer and the students who understand the process separately, rather than the students who take classes together.

Fees and tuition: about $18058/year

Ontario College of Art and Design

Ontario College of Art&Design

OCAD is located in the center of Toronto, close to the AGO (Art Gallery of Ontario), which often has national treasure level exhibitions, like Michelangelo's works exhibition some time ago.

The school buildings are almost landmarks of Toronto. The subject design of the school is very comprehensive: from environmental design, industrial design to clothing design. In recent years, digital art disciplines such as Digital Futures have also been opened.

OCAD was founded in 1912, with a history of more than 100 years, and was rated as the best art and design institute in Canada. As it is located in the center of Toronto, with a large number of galleries, art centers and art galleries, the artistic atmosphere is very good. OCAD graduates are mostly employed in Toronto and New York. Here, famous American and Canadian artists often give guest lectures.

Tuition: $18692

Nova Scotia College of Art and Design

Nova Scotia College of Art and Design

"NSCAD is a special legend in this school," said Yu.

It was founded in 1887 and is located in Halifax, the capital of Nova Scotia. It is a relatively remote province in Canada. But it has a long history, because it is the place where Europeans first landed in Canada and the United States, and the whole city has a strong European wind.

NSCAD is one of the earliest art colleges in North America. Its main courses include: craft, design, pure art, history and critical research.

"Personally, I think this school is very strong in research. I have two teachers who graduated from this school. They both pay great attention to academic research, and will have many research assignments, including art history, philosophy, and anthropology. In addition, it is worth mentioning that the digital interactive art of this school is also very good," said Yu.

cost:

Undergraduate tuition: about $17000/academic year

Dormitory expenses: CAD 0126/month (including meals)

ryerson university

Ryerson University

Finally, I want to talk about Ryerson University, a comprehensive college.

The School of Fashion at Ryerson University in Toronto is also a good choice for students who like to study abroad in fashion design. The clothing school of Ryerson University can be said to be the best in Canada, and the requirements are also very high.

Here, there are graduate courses in clothing, and you need to prepare a collection of works during the application process. His fashion college is located in Dundas Square, the central business district of Toronto, and has cooperation with many American companies. Every year, there is a Fashion Show held by the school, which will be attended by many professionals.

Academic and miscellaneous fees: $25179

Graduated from Alberta College of Art and Design, Canada, with excellent results. During the school, he used to be an assistant teacher in the Oil Painting Department. His works have been exhibited and awarded prizes for many times. After graduation, he was successively employed by many graphic design companies as a graphic designer and illustrator. At the same time, he has become a contracted painter and guest artist of many galleries, and has organized and participated in individual exhibitions and group exhibitions for many times. His works were also reported by the local magazine "Art Katalyst" During the seven years of studying and working in Canada, I worked as a work tutor to help students successfully apply to various art schools such as Emily Carr, OCAD, Parsons, etc. It is hoped that with the long-term work and learning experience in North America, as well as the professional concepts of art and design learned from the West, the students of natural light can find their own style in a relaxed teaching way, and guide the future development direction of students.
