  • Grant Macewan University Celebrates New Name
    September 24, 2009 Grant MacEwan University celebrates new name Edmonton... Students from across the province can now attend Grant MacEwan University, as the institution has been formally renamed by the Alberta government. “The needs of Alberta students are changing and our world-class post-secondary institutions are ahead of the curve in terms of providing the best educational opportunities anywhere,” said Premier Ed Stelmach. “Grant MacEwan University is an outstanding institution that has shown there is an exciting alternative for undergraduate studies.” “Dr. MacEwan was famous for saying, ‘leave the garden better than you found it’ and I believe that by renaming the institution a university we are enhancing and confirming the influential role that Grant MacEwan University has on Campus Alberta, the province and on generations of Albertans,” added Stelmach. Grant MacEwan University’s mandate will continue as a Baccalaureate and Applied Studies Institution under Campus Alberta’s six-sector post-secondary model. The institution provides a broad array of programs, including certificates, diplomas, applied degrees, and baccalaureate degrees. “Grant MacEwan University’s commitment to affordable, accessible and quality education mirrors the goals of Campus Alberta, which is to provide the right programs to learners where and when they need them,” said Doug Horner, Minister of Advanced Education and Technology. “Over the past few years, it has been offering high calibre and innovative bachelor degrees, as part of the educational choices available, in an intimate and comfortable learning environment.” Using the term ‘university’ recognizes the high level of baccalaureate degree programs that students receive at Grant MacEwan University. Students will have better opportunities to transition to higher learning in graduate programming and into the workforce.
