The University of Regina Turns 50 This Year
We’re Inviting You To Join The Celebration!
In 1974, after more than a century as Regina College, the U of R became an independent university. Over the last 50 years we’ve seen major milestones and have supported research that has changed the world.
We’re marking this historic anniversary with a special 50th Anniversary Hub that celebrates the university’s history of groundbreaking research, student success, and our commitment to our community with interactive articles and the chance for you to share your own memories.
And be sure to check out the 50th Anniversary Events Calendar. We’re lining up events and activities to celebrate throughout the year and you’re invited.
Let’s go far, together.

Learn by Doing, Together
We believe there is no better teacher than experience.
This belief led us to pioneer the first co-operative education program in Western Canada more than half a century ago. Our history of providing hands-on learning opportunities has given our institution decades of insight, allowing us to fine-tune our programs and offerings so that students reap the rewards in the real world. Our students enjoy plentiful opportunities to gain experience in both paid and volunteer positions, resulting in career-ready graduates who find work fast.
We know that learning happens best by doing.
Strengthening Connections
Honouring the Past, Together
The University of Regina and its federated colleges are on Treaty 4 and Treaty 6 — the territories of the nêhiyawak, Anihšināpēk, Dakota, Lakota, and Nakoda peoples, and the homeland of the Michif/Métis nation.
We recognize that, as an institution founded by settlers, we benefit from being on this land. We are grateful for the privilege to learn, teach, and work here. We demonstrate our commitment to reconciliation by incorporating Indigenous knowledge and world views in our research, teaching, and studies to ensure that there are increased economic, social, and creative opportunities for current and future generations. It is our responsibility to strengthen relationships with Indigenous communities and build a more inclusive future.
