Wilfrid Laurier University
At Wilfrid Laurier University, courses are offered in a variety of classic and cutting-edge fields, including music, science, social work, business, and economics. They all ultimately point to Laurier's resolve to address major social, health, and environmental issues while advancing the arts.
The educational equation includes more than just classroom instruction. A defining feature of the Laurier experience is applying knowledge to real-world problems. The objective of experiential learning activities like co-op work terms and community service is to help students connect what they learn in the classroom to their real-world experiences. As a result, Laurier graduates have the knowledge and abilities necessary to excel in the post-college environment.
Our world faces complex challenges; Laurier graduates are ready to tackle them. It’s about forming a foundation of service that students continue long after graduation.
