Conveniently located in the GTA, Laurier Milton offers commute-ready students the opportunity to study close to home and enjoy a comfortable learn-work-live lifestyle.

Future-Driven Degrees

Two of Laurier's most popular and established programs, Computer Science and Psychology, are available in Milton! Both undergraduate degrees will be taught with an innovative, problem-based approach, and have been designed with extensive hands-on learning opportunities (including co-op for eligible Computer Science (BSc) students!).

Whether you're excited to unpack the biological and behavioural science of the human mind or learn the ins and outs of diverse computing languages and algorithms, Laurier Milton will give you the quality education and career-readiness you're looking for.
