Welcome

We are one of Canada’s leading universities and research institutions. But more than that, we are a community of inspiring lights united by one common purpose—you. Your education. Your future. And your limitless ability to make an important difference in the world.

Each year, we proudly welcome more than 600 international students representing more than 80 countries to our campus. Our motto is Fiat Lux, “let there be light.” While Lethbridge is one of Canada’s sunniest cities, the phrase actually refers to the illumination that comes from research and learning.

At uLethbridge, you will learn to think about issues from all angles. You’ll work alongside the world’s brightest minds and most accomplished researchers to bring new light to society’s most perplexing questions. You’ll have extraordinary opportunities to take your learning beyond the classroom and discover the world. Your classes will be small, your professors will know your name, and you’ll receive the support you need to succeed.

Sincerely,

Mike Mahon, PhD

President and Vice Chancellor

University of Lethbridge
