The Royal Military College of Canada’s (RMC) uniformed students are educated and trained for careers as commissioned officers in the Canadian Forces. Serving Canadians since 1876, RMC has placed its graduates not only in military service, but also in government, business, and the professions. Almost without exception, the graduates of RMC are found in positions of leadership and responsibility. RMC occupies a 41 hectare peninsula immediately to the east of downtown Kingston, Ontario. Modern academic, athletic, and residential facilities blend with older, historic buildings. Classes are small, the student/faculty ratio is advantageous, and laboratories are equipped with state of the art essentials. The academic programs in arts, science, and engineering are taught in English and in French, the opportunity to learn and excel in both official languages is a fixture of the institution.
