  • Study science in Prince Rupert.

    At Coast Mountain College we are always exploring new ways to move our courses into the field. Our rugged geography and variable climates enhance our classrooms.

    Two years of university-level science courses are designed to transfer to degree programs at other universities in the province and around the world.

  • Learning local and place-based education.

    Wolfgang, a student from our Hydrology class and University Transfer program, enjoys the education he gets outside of the four walls of a classroom at CMTN. Doing fieldwork that is transferable to a job site is an invaluable career-ready experience.

    At Coast Mountain College we aim to be the college of choice for experiential, place-based learning. We're allowing students to learn both in the classroom and in the spectacular outdoor spaces that are so unique to this part of Canada.
