Welcome to the School of Engineering Technology and Applied Science (SETAS). We are in the midst of an era where change, innovation and new technologies are driving the way we experience life. We are forging ahead with programs in new, leading-edge technologies, higher standards, and the introduction of exciting and innovative approaches to the way we engage all our communities for the ultimate benefit of our students. 

SETAS comprises the four departments of Applied Biological and Environmental Sciences (ABES), Information and Communication Engineering Technology (ICET), Advanced Manufacturing and Automation Technology (AMAT), and the Department of Mathematics and Physics which is responsible for the teaching of these courses throughout Centennial College. Enrolment is strong and our new programs take us to the forefront of offering new and advanced technological career options to our students.

Our Centennial Energy Institute has taken up the challenge to illuminate the paths to Ontario’s energy future and provide clarity through our activities in training, research and public information seminars.

SETAS graduates are in demand and we salute the first graduates of our Bachelor of Applied Information Sciences: Computer and Communication Networking degree program. Of the graduating class, 90 per cent have found jobs in their field while the other 10 per cent have gone on to graduate studies.  Also, in fall 2007, we introduced the Bachelor of Applied Information Sciences: Software Systems - Design, Development and Management degree program.

We offer bridging programs for internationally trained individuals (ITI), particularly the Fast Track to Technology Occupations program which is geared to help ITIs resume their technological careers in Canada.

We continue to build on our past achievements while embracing the SETAS vision of the future. All of our programs will be accredited having both national and international recognition, while our faculty are being supported by initiatives to maintain and promote academic excellence and field certification.

The establishment of Centres of Excellence with state of the art equipment and resources for teaching and research will foster a culture of innovation and entrepreneurship, as well as a spirit of collaboration to work with our external communities.

Most importantly, our student focus will be through global and bilateral partnerships. Graduating students will be prepared for intermediate level positions as opposed to the standard entry level option.

We look forward to the year ahead and invite you to join us on this exciting journey to the future.
