Student Experience

Rewarding

Grow your capabilities
In the undergraduate program you will learn about teaching theory, become an expert in different content areas and complete at least two professional Field Experience terms. The result: you will become a professional educator equipped with the tools needed to lead a classroom full of inquisitive minds to a brighter future. There is nothing more rewarding than that.

Uniquely beautiful

Explore what is special about the University of Alberta
The experience you will have in the Faculty of Education is as unique as the nature of the University of Alberta itself.

Book a campus visit and see what we mean!

Fun

Find new ways to enjoy student life
Go to the HUB mall between classes for a piece of pizza. Play frisbee with friends in the quad on a sunny afternoon. Use your U-Pass and take a quick bus ride to Whyte ave and explore the shops. Head home to your dorm room and do some reading before lights out. Life at the University of Alberta is, in a word, fun - as long as you are willing to explore a little.
