On the west coast of Canada,
Douglas College is located just
east of Vancouver, British
Columbia, in New Westminster.
Vancouver and the surrounding
area is Canada's 3rd largest city,
after Toronto and Montreal. The
Greater Vancouver area is home
to 2.3 million people across an
area of 2800km squared.
H O S P I T A L I T Y I M M E R S I O N P R O G R A M
People living in Vancouver love
to get outside and be active.
Because the temperature is mild
year-round, you can participate
in various outdoor activities like
hiking, cycling, skiing and
snowboarding, kayaking or
mountain biking. The Greater
Vancouver area has a variety of
cultural sites and activities,
including galleries, museums,
theatres, shopping and worldclass
food.
