The University of Regina

The roots of the University of Regina can be 
traced back to the founding of the Regina 
College by the Methodist Church in 1911. 

In 1925, university-level classes were 
started in cooperation with the University 
of Saskatchewan and in 1959 the Regina 
Campus acquired degree-granting status. 

The University of Regina became an 
independent university in May of 1974. 
The University presently offers a wide range 
of degree programs in eight faculties 
(Administration, Arts, Education, 
Engineering, Fine Arts, Physical Activity 
Studies, Science, and Social Work), two 
schools (Human Justice and Journalism) 
and University Extension. Its Faculty of 
Graduate Studies and Research provides 
an active research environment, offering 
graduate degrees in many areas and 
disciplines.
