About University of Windsor
The University of Windsor grew out of Assumption College, which opened in 1857 in what is now Windsor, Ontario. It became an independent, non-denominational public university in 1963. Today it is a mid-sized comprehensive university with faculties of engineering, science, business (the Odette School of Business), nursing, law, education and arts.
Windsor is Canada's southernmost city, right across the river from Detroit, and has long been tied to the North American car industry. The university's engineering faculty works closely with automotive and advanced-manufacturing companies, and its course-based master's programmes in engineering, applied computing and management are among the most popular in Canada with Indian graduates.
