University of Regina

Introduction

The University of Regina's main campus and historic original College Avenue campus, covering 930 acres, provide an attractive study and work environment for our students, faculty and staff.

The University is home to 10 faculties and 25 academic departments which have established reputations for excellence and innovative programs leading to bachelor's, master's, and doctoral degrees. In the Fall 2012, a total of 13,120 full-time and part-time undergraduate and graduate students enrolled at the University, including our three federated colleges: Campion College, First Nations University of Canada, and Luther College.

The University employs, together with the federated colleges, approximately 4,550 people. As well, 970 additional full-time jobs in other organizations in Saskatchewan, as well as another 570 outside of the province, are a result from spending by the University, its students and visitors.

Both the main campus and College Avenue campus are located in Wascana Centre, one of the largest urban parks in North America and the first in Canada to be created by a tri-level government/education partnership.

In the 2010-11 fiscal year the University's operating expenditures were $152 million. The University also received nearly $24 million in research funding. Including capital and other spending, total expenditures were $230 million.

Background

History of the University of Regina

We have a proud history of excellence in teaching, research and continual commitment to our community. More than one hundred years of excellence in education has created a university devoted to making a difference.

The University of Regina has its roots in Regina College, a small residential high school established by the Methodist church in 1911. It grew in size and significance becoming a campus of the University of Saskatchewan and ultimately an independent degree granting university, the University of Regina, in 1974.

University of Regina alumni - now numbering almost 62,000 - contribute to and build our society in Saskatchewan and in Canada, and are our ambassadors to the world. Our history, our accomplishments, our growth as a university stem from our commitment to working together for the good of our community, from local to global.
