unleash
your potential
The University of Calgary (UCalgary) is one of Canada’s
top research institutions. Choosing to live and learn at
UCalgary means you’ll study with educators who are
experts in their fields. You’ll also have opportunities to
generate new knowledge alongside our researchers as
early as your first year of study.
In addition to exceptional academic experiences, you’ll
have access to student support services that are second to
none. Over the course of your time with us, we’ll help you
nurture lifelong interests so you’re prepared to take on the
challenge of current and emerging career paths.
We acknowledge the traditional territories of the people of the Treaty 7 region in Southern Alberta, which includes the Blackfoot
Confederacy (comprising the Siksika, Piikuni, and Kainai First Nations), the Tsuut’ina First Nation, and the Stoney Nakoda (including
the Chiniki, Bearspaw, and Wesley First Nations). The City of Calgary is also home to the Métis Nation of Alberta, Region III. The
University of Calgary is situated on land adjacent to where the Bow River meets the Elbow River, and the traditional Blackfoot name of
this place is “Moh’kins’tsis”, which we now call the City of Calgary.
