Graduate Certificate - Aquaculture (AQU) (Co-op)
About Graduate Certificate - Aquaculture (AQU) (Co-op)
This compressed, one-year program is the only Aquaculture program offered as a Post-Graduate Certificate in Ontario. Food aquaculture operations encompass a wide variety of species and culture techniques. In addition to food production, aquaculture activities include production of fish for conservation, and production for ornamental species. The global demand for aquaculture products is growing, along with demands for stewardship, sustainability and food safety and security. This unique program combines:
- Significant hands-on operational experience
- Numerous field trips to experience aspects of the aquaculture industry such as trout farming and conservation stocking
- Business training so that graduates can both promote the industry and understand the diverse challenges facing aquaculture enterprises
During first semester, students will address aquaculture fundamentals. Much of the program will take place in the campus hatchery facilities, which include an Atlantic salmon hatchery and a muskellunge hatchery.
The focus in second semester is on operational and business practices, and internship planning.
