Humber Offers 80 PGWP-Eligible Programs

What Are PGWP-Eligible Programs

International students interested in applying for a post-graduate work permit (PGWP) to potentially work in Canada after graduation must ensure their chosen program(s) align with the most current PGWP eligibility requirements outlined by Immigration, Refugees, & Citizenship Canada (IRCC).

To help you make an informed decision about your studies at Humber, you can review the provided list of PGWP Eligible Programs including the CIP Code (Classification of Instructional Programs) for each program as well as a PGWP Eligible check to more easily identify programs that align with IRCC PGWP eligibility criteria*. While this list is meant to support your experience, be sure to verify the CIP code with the most current information on the IRCC website.

Please note that students who applied for a study permit before November 1, 2024, are not required to graduate in an eligible field of study. Any study permit applications submitted on or after November 1, 2024, must graduate in an eligible field of study.

How to Stack PGWP-Eligible Programs

On or after November 1, 2024, if a student completes two consecutive programs that are PGWP-eligible within two years of completion of the first program when applying for a PGWP, both programs could be considered for the purpose of determining the length of the PGWP.

To qualify for program stacking in relation to PGWP duration, both PGWP-eligible programs must be:

  • a minimum of 8 months in duration; and
  • completed at a PGWP-eligible DLI within 2 years of the completion of the first program.

In determining whether a program is PGWP-eligible:

  • the language requirement is applicable to all PGWP applications (except those from flight school graduates) submitted on or after November 1, 2024, regardless of when the student applied for their study permit or when they started their program of study.
  • the field of study requirement is applicable depending on the level of study and when a student applies for their student permit.
  • If the student applies for a study permit extension under the same program of study as the study permit they applied for before November 1, 2024, then they do not need to meet the field of study requirement.
  • If the student applies for a study permit extension under a different program of study than the study permit they applied for before November 1, 2024, then their study permit extension application must meet the field of study requirements applicable to their study program to be eligible for a PGWP.
