In 1800, the Provincial Academy of Arts and Science became the College of New Brunswick. King's College was established at Fredericton, New Brunswick in 1828 under the control of the Church of England. King's College offered the first engineering course taught at a Canadian university in 1854. In 1858 it was made non-sectarian under the designation of the University of New Brunswick. In 1859, it became the non- denominational University of New Brunswick. The governance of UNB was modeled on the provincial University of Toronto Act of 1906 which established a bicameral system of university government consisting of a senate (faculty) responsible for academic policy, and a board of governors (citizens) exercising exclusive control over financial policy and having formal authority in all other matters. The president, appointed by the board, was to provide a link between the two bodies and to provide institutional leadership. By 1920, the University of New Brunswick had two faculties: Arts, and Applied Science. It awarded the degrees of Bachelor of Arts, Bachelor of Science, Master of Arts, and Doctor of Science. The latter was awarded only in civil engineering, electrical engineering and forestry. It had 156 male students and 21 female students, and only eleven academic staff, all male. In 1964, a second, smaller campus was established in Saint John, New Brunswick. The growth of the UNBSJ campus is particularly notable, considering it began in 1964 with only 96 students spread throughout various buildings in Saint John's central business district. By the late 1960s, the Saint John Law School was moved to UNBF to become the University of New Brunswick’s Faculty of Law, and in 1968 UNBSJ moved into its new campus at Tucker Park. Both campuses have undergone significant expansion over the years and many University buildings have received funding from Lord Beaverbrook and other prominent industrialists and philanthropists. UNB's largest expansion coincided with the Baby boom, and its Fredericton campus tripled in size. In 1973 the New Brunswick Teachers' College (now the Faculty of Education) was absorbed into UNB. Originally a department in the Arts faculty, the University of New Brunswick’s Faculty of Business Administration was formed in 1980 and is a major supplier of management education. TODAY Now about 12,000 students from more than 100 countries have chosen the University of New Brunswick. We offer over 35 degree programs and 36 certificate and diploma programs in 110 disciplines. As a UNB student, you will be fully prepared to achieve your personal and career goals. Many programs (full-time and part-time) offer real-life work experience to provide you with a balance of practical skills and academic knowledge. Our students come from all walks of life – mature, full-time and part-time, domestic and international students of all ages and all backgrounds. There are also lots of campus activities – clubs and societies, recreational and varsity sports, student unions and a couple of student newspapers. There is always something going on and tons of people to make your university experience one of the best times of your life! On October 7, 2011 the University of New Brunswick officially opened the Richard J. CURRIE CENTER. The five-storey, 139,000-square-foot building is among the largest single construction projects in Fredericton's history. It was designed by B and H Architects in partnership with Sasaki and Associates. It was built by Moncton-based Acadian Construction. THE BMO CENTRE HOME OF THE REDS SOCCER PROGRAM On Sept. 17, 2011 The BMO Centre was officially opened on the UNB Fredericton campus. Earlier in the year BMO Financial announced a gift of $1.75 million, the largest gift to the university from a single corporate partner, with $1 million of the gift going to enhance the UNB Reds soccer program. With new signs on the clubhouse and around the field, it looks like a brand new facility. Construction is almost complete on the clubhouse attached to the turf facility, with offices, soccer changing rooms and washrooms, and an artificial turf. BMO Centre will be home to the UNB Reds soccer teams as well as the URec Red Bombers football team and other club sport teams and will be used extensively by the greater Fredericton community. The University of New Brunswick - step into a world where learning, tradition and inspiration are combined into a great life experience. Step into a world where learning is about more than just studying. With two main campuses, UNB is large enough to offer a wide range of programs yet small enough for the professors to actually know your name. Our students receive a quality education while learning about the world, future careers and life in general. CHOOSE UNB About 12,000 students from more than 100 countries have chosen UNB.
