The University of Winnipeg is a dynamic campus in transition. We are becoming
the downtown hub that connects people from diverse cultures and nurtures global
citizens. We offer high-quality undergraduate and graduate programs including
several that are unique in Western Canada, for example, a Bachelor of Arts in
Human Rights and Global Studies, and a Master s degree in Aboriginal
Governance. Our graduates value their educational experience, and in the June
2008 issue of Maclean s Graduate Survey, ranked UWinnipeg in the Top-10 of all
Canadian universities. This vote of confidence is backed by the Globe & Mail
Report Card 2008, which gives UWinnipeg an overall A grade.
A quick
stroll across Portage Commons and around our expanding campus highlights our
focus as a leader in academic excellence, Aboriginal education, environmental
studies, and theatre and arts. Renovations are underway at the CanWest Centre
for Theatre & Film. Construction has started on the Richardson College for the
Environment & Science Complex and a new student residence, McFeetors Hall. The
newly renovated Duckworth Centre, including The Bill Wedlake Fitness Centre now
attracts students, staff and members of the public to its state-the-art
facilities.
We offer small class sizes and a dedicated team of
professors, sessional instructors and support staff. Whether you are a new or
returning student, I want to personally welcome you to The University of
Winnipeg.
