The Augustana Faculty
Located on a picturesque residential campus in the small city of Camrose, 90 kilometres southeast of Edmonton, Augustana’s primary focus is undergraduate teaching and learning. Augustana enrols more than 1,000 students, drawn from across Alberta, Canada and the world, in distinctive degree programs in arts, sciences, music and management. It awarded its first U of A degrees in spring 2005. In addition to the Faculty’s statement of identity and mission below, please consult the Augustana website for further information.
Identity and Mission
The Augustana Faculty of the University of Alberta provides an outstanding undergraduate liberal arts and sciences education. Settlers founded the campus in 1911 on Treaty 6 land at asiniskaw sipisis (Stoney Creek), a traditional meeting ground for many Indigenous peoples. Today, as a Faculty of the University of Alberta, Augustana welcomes students from all walks of life to participate in a learning experience that blends theory with practice and encourages active engagement with each other and our environments. We prepare and educate students for life.
We are committed to providing a unique undergraduate education through a project-based core and a variety of multidisciplinary majors and professional programs. Our programs are delivered by a diverse community of scholars who challenge and support students to engage creatively and critically in their studies for the public good. We aspire to cultivate problem-solvers who ask difficult and important questions and pose innovative solutions for the classroom, for our communities, and for the world.
