Laurentian University is a microcosm of Canada: we are northern; we are bilingual; we are committed to reconciliation. Laurentian is committed to strengthening the foundation of knowledge in higher education and research to offer an outstanding university experience in English and French with a comprehensive approach to Indigenous education. Together with its federated partners, Laurentian University prepares leaders who bring innovative and intelligent solutions to local and global issues.
Laurentian University has been a leader among universities in responding to the COVID-19 outbreak. The first university in Canada to recognize the severity of the outbreak and suspend in-person activities, Laurentian was also the first to transition fully from in-person to remote learning.
The University remains committed to providing our students with a safe and exceptional university experience, maintaining Laurentian as the leading Northern Ontario university. Laurentian remains committed to providing an education that prepares our students for the workforce and to contribute to Greater Sudbury, the North and beyond.
Laurentian has been rapidly growing its reputation as a leading university for the North, with increasing international recognition and strong national, provincial and regional impact. We strive to deliver innovative academic and research programming that successfully prepares students as critical thinkers for the 21st century. We are committed to achieving this objective through cutting edge teaching and research programs that engage students within and beyond their disciplines, and provide real world experience and a concrete framework in how they can make a difference.
