you can choose between the federal skilled worker program or the provincial nominee program (PNP) - depending on which one you qualify for. 

the first step is to get a job and get some work experience - a minimum of 12 months is needed to be eligible to immigrate. 
Canada does not want students who have just graduated. Canada wants EXPERIENCED workers.

It depends what field you got your degree in, and  it depends on if they need people with that education.They may want people with experience. The learning doesn't really start until you have the job you are trained for.
