Concordia University College of Alberta provides a
rigorous, student-focused university education in an engaging and caring
environment.
Established in 1921, Concordia began offering
university-level arts and science courses in 1967, and received
degree-granting status from the Province of Alberta in 1987.
A member of the Association of Universities and
Colleges of Canada, Concordia currently offers accredited bachelor’s
and master’s degrees, as well as professional certificate and diploma
programs.
Concordia’s greatest strength is its size. With
an enrolment of 1,800, students benefit from smaller classes and access to
their professors. In a recent survey of Alberta post-secondary graduates,
Concordia ranked #1 in terms of graduate satisfaction with the quality of
teaching and overall educational experience.
As a Christian university college, Concordia also
adds purpose and meaning to your university education by encouraging
personal integrity, leadership and community responsibility. While our
heritage is Lutheran, we serve people of all backgrounds and faiths.
At Concordia, students can earn three- and four-year
Bachelor of Arts or Bachelor of Science degrees, or a four-year Bachelor of
Management degree. Our after-degree programs include a two-year Bachelor of
Education, a 15-month Bachelor of Environmental Health, and diploma and
certificate programs in Career Development.

As well, students can earn a Master of Information
Systems Security Management – our first graduate-level degree
program. Students wishing to enter into Christian church work can choose
from our Director of Parish Services, Parish Nursing, Christian Teacher and
Pre-seminary programs.
At Concordia, we are committed to developing a student
intellectually, socially, physically and spiritually. Student life offers a
rich and fulfilling experience with a wide range of extracurricular
activities, including student clubs and associations, music, drama and
athletics.
Our nurturing atmosphere is a reflection of our
commitment to the Christian faith. Concordia students are encouraged to
take part in any number of spiritual activities. Daily chapel, led by
faculty, students and guests – and open to everyone – is the
focal point of spiritual life on campus.
The student group LAMBS (Living a Mission Beyond
Service) works to serve the greater community in Edmonton; students may
also choose to join in mission trips to other parts of Canada.
Concordia’s renewable entrance scholarship
program, aimed at students entering Concordia directly from high school,
guarantees an annual scholarship – valued up to $3,750, depending on
the students’ final admission average. The competitive
President’s Leadership Scholarship, worth approximately $30,000, as
well as transfer student and in-course scholarships, are also available.
