So you’re thinking about post-secondary education.

Smart idea.

The next step is making a smart choice.

You probably already know not all post-secondary

experiences are created equal. Some get you a line

on your resumé; others set you on your career

path. Wise students choose the latter.

At SAIT Polytechnic, students know they’re training

for in-demand careers in Business, Technology

and Trades, getting hands-on education on

state-of-the-art equipment from dedicated instructors.

SAIT students enjoy a modern, newly expanded

main campus designed with student life and

learning in mind. And when they’ve completed

their studies, our alumni also enjoy some of the

best grad employment rates around — 94 per cent.*

Sounds pretty smart, doesn’t it?

A+ EMPLOYMENT RATES

Before they’ve even crossed the convocation

stage, many SAIT students know where they’ll

be working after graduation. That’s because

employers recruit SAIT’s in-demand grads

while they’re still students. And each year,

more and more employers vie for one of the

coveted booths at Career Directions, SAIT’s

student career fair, for the opportunity to

recruit industry-ready SAIT students. Last

year’s fair saw over 150 employers recruiting

at SAIT Polytechnic.

The employment rate for our 2014 graduating

class was 94 per cent. Enrolling in a SAIT

program means our grads are miles ahead

on their career path.

Smart.

AT HOME IN THE

LABORATORY

At SAIT Polytechnic, our Architectural

Technologies and Civil Engineering Technology

students learn about home design from the

floorboards up, constructing real houses in our

indoor home building lab as well as studying

computer-aided design and drafting. It’s just

one of many SAIT classrooms designed to provide

students with real-world learning experiences.

From healthcare simulation labs complete

with manikins who breathe and give birth, to

an award-winning fine dining restaurant and

a worldclass drilling simulation lab, SAIT’s

classrooms provide hands-on experience to

ensure our students are ready to hit the

ground running when they graduate.

Smart.

“ SAIT’s continued employment of current technology and project oriented

technicians that can complete their projects efficiently and within the culture

of their enterprise, integrate into their full time permanent staff.”

EXPERTS AT THE

HEAD OF THE CLASS

SAIT Polytechnic’s focus on real-world skills

extends from the instructors we hire to the

applied research projects we provide. Many

of our instructors are seasoned industry

professionals who’ve worked in the occupation

you’re training for. They have the inside track

on industry, and are as passionate about

teaching as they are about sharing their

professional insights with students.

To ensure students make the most of these

classroom experts, SAIT keeps class sizes

small, providing plenty of opportunity for

one-on-one interactions. This means our

instructors know their students and are

invested in their success.

SAIT’s Applied Research and Innovation

Services (ARIS) connect students with industry

partners to work together on real-world

projects. Working with our team of researchers,

students apply their education, gain hands-on

industry-based experience, and do relevant

work that is impressive on a resumé.

Smart.

LIFE AT SAIT

SAIT Polytechnic students know that life

after class is an important part of the

post-secondary experience. Our campus,

facilities and programs are designed to ensure

our students get the most from their time here.

SAIT’s main campus boasts a variety of

dining options, a gymnasium, soccer field,

the Wellness Centre, and a campus venue

renowned for drawing the hottest music acts.

Our active campus community is home to

student clubs, intramural sport options and

a dynamic Students’ Association. Our SAIT

Trojans teams consistently place high in the

Alberta College Athletic Conference and home

games draw a big crowd.

SAIT offers financial, academic and health and

wellness support to maximize student success.

The Chinook Lodge Aboriginal Resource Centre

is a gathering place open to all while dedicated

to supporting success among First Nations,

Inuit and Métis students.

SAIT’s urban main campus provides a

multitude of gathering spaces and a beautiful

environment in which to learn and socialize.

And at the end of the day, our students can get

home easily via the on-campus C-train line, or

by walking to our well-equipped, high-rise

residence buildings.

Smart.
