UNB - Making a Significant Difference.....

At University of New Brunswick, it's about the difference we make. . . . a significant difference in the lives of our students past and present, in our community, our province and around the world. We accomplish this by developing leading programs and conducting the most innovative research.

It is the momentum that moves us forward. A momentum inspired by our legacy of leadership and maintained by students building a future at a university,
which gives them the foundation to do so. Our legacy of leadership is what you will inherit. The opportunities are yours to add to it.

Tradition. Established in 1785. Over 200 years of creating programs and
producing graduates (over 50,000 alumni worldwide) who lead by example.
That is how our legacy was built.

Innovation. Innovative programs leading research and technological
advancement. This is how our legacy evolves and continues to map our
future.

Community. Forming bonds within a community of friends and professors
building a home away from home. That is why a legacy is built.

The University of New Brunswick has been an established tradition in the
Maritimes for more than 200 years. Through these two centuries of
educational leadership, UNB has remained at the forefront of Canadian
universities. Our students earn more national graduate fellowships than any
other institution in the Atlantic region and our research programs are among
the finest in the country, with more than $14 million worth of grants and
contracts awarded annually.

UNB offers a university environment with a window on two dynamic cities -
Fredericton and Saint John. Having two campuses allows the flexibility of
place and field of study. Each campus has its individual characteristics,
but admissions and academic standards, degree programs and financial aid
remain fully integrated.

UNB offers under-graduate and graduate degrees in more than 60 disciplines
and continuing education in a variety of fields. Its 10,000 students come
predominately from Canada, but increasingly from all over the world.

Founded in 1785, the University of New Brunswick is one of the oldest public
universities in North America. Throughout its long history, UNB has
influenced the future of thousands of young scholars. UNB has shaped the
social and economic landscape of Canada - and beyond.

UNB is a respected institution with accomplished people. It has many of the
brightest and best people in the country right now and we are continuing to
attract faculty, staff and students of this high calibre. UNB is a strong
national university with fully-accredited programs and a strong research
base - and these will continue to remain priorities.

Dr John McLaughlin President of UNB says we are committed to furthering UNB's
position as the Province's centre for research and graduate studies, playing
a lead role in advancing the social and economic agenda of Atlantic Canada,
strengthening our learning-centred environment and to the advancement of a
life-long learning agenda.

As Canada's oldest English-speaking university, we are very proud of our
rich heritage and traditions. UNB has played a pivotal role in New
Brunswick, Canada - and beyond for more than 215 years. But it is our
outlook and our people that make UNB a truly remarkable institution. We have
a great deal to offer at the University of New Brunswick - top quality
programs, a warm and inviting atmosphere, and two of the most beautiful
campuses in the country."

There's an edge to the University of New Brunswick, a cutting edge of
technology. The province has the most advanced IT infrastructure on the
continent. In telecommunications, our innovators tell the world what's
next. The National Research Council chose UNB as the location for a
world-class e-business facility. Choosing the right university is an exciting decision. It's also a tough decision - you want a solid education and you want to enjoy the experience as well. UNB has cultivated an experience that fits your needs.

Both campuses of UNB offer a variety of programs and credits and are
generally interchangeable between the two. Our professors are accessible
and the campuses are brimming with action and opportunities for involvement.

New Brunswick, the largest of Canada's three maritime provinces, is nestled
under Quebec's Gaspe Peninsula and beside the State of Maine. The province
is just a day's drive from Toronto and half a day to Montreal.
