ABOUT US

The Rural Economy Graduate Students Association (REGSA) is the governing body for graduate students in the Department of Rural Economy at the Univeristy of Alberta, Canada. Comprised of an elected executive and council members, we are an organization that works closely with students, faculty and administration to promote collegiality and student interests within the department and the university as a whole.

As the representative of students from diverse academic and cultural backgrounds we strive to organize events that encompass a broad range of interests, and that foster a fun and friendly environment in which to study and socialize.

We encourage everyone to come out to REGSA events and welcome new suggestions as to how we can make things even better.
