Details

Placements are an integral part of Humber College’s Research Analyst Graduate Certificate Program. The placement component of the program occurs at the end of the program and typically requires students completing a research-specific placement. These placements provide employers with students who have specialized skills in research design and project management, survey design, data collection methods, and data analysis, visualization and presentation. All students hold a bachelor’s degree and many have higher credentials along with specializations in research.

Students are available for 200+ hours of placement from May 2022 to July 2022

Due to COVID-19 restrictions, student placements will only occur virtually.
