Projects

Innovating Spaces
The physical spaces within the Faculty of Arts must match the high aspirations of our students and faculty. Investing in our campus is investing in the cultural and academic heart of the university.

Empowering Changemakers
Our Arts grads are versatile professionals, but they need practical experience to make the leap from classroom theory to career success. Your support bridges that gap, giving students the essential exposure and hands-on skills needed to thrive in a competitive world.

Driving Research and Innovation
Arts research is the foundation for a better society. It investigates pressing social, cultural, and political challenges, influencing public discourse and shaping ethical policy. Your philanthropy strengthens this vital work. Given the breadth of research across the Faculty, we welcome conversations about the areas that matter most to you.

Enhance the student experience
By supporting students, more students will have the chance to:
- Encounter new cultures and take classes in a different country through partner universities with the Study Abroad program.
- Turn ideas into business opportunities through entrepreneurial programs such as EHub.
- Spend a summer researching alongside a professor mentor thanks to Undergraduate and Graduate Research Awards.
- Participate in a coop work placement with Arts Work Experience (AWE) or Community Service-Learning (CSL) via Arts Beyond the Classroom
When students participate in these experiential learning programs, they better understand their professional skills, have a better grasp of other communities and cultures, and are able to imagine their place in the working world.
Enrich research + creative activities
Philanthropy can enhance research and community engagement at the University of Alberta by establishing an academic position focused on a particular area of research, or supporting a lecture series that provides access to thought leaders and engages in public discourse.
