CENTENNIAL
A Century of Promise: In 2021, CUE
celebrates one hundred years as an
institution. From our beginnings as a
small gathering of scholars in Edmonton,
we have grown into a diverse community
of students, faculty, alumni, and staff
who are dedicated to having a positive
impact inside and outside of our borders.
As we mark this important milestone,
we reaffirm our commitment to creating
independent thinkers, ethical leaders, and
citizens for the common good, and look
forward to beginning our next century as
Canada’s pre-eminent small university.
WELCOME TO CUE
We are Canada’s pre-eminent small university, with world-class
research facilities, and faculty who are leaders in their fields.
This is a special academic year for us as we celebrate our 100th anniversary.
From very humble beginnings in a downtown Edmonton hotel in 1921, our
university has grown in size and reputation to become a leader in Canadian
higher education.
I invite you to discover the many programs, services, and opportunities that
CUE has to offer.
Over the past 18 months COVID-19 has had an impact on everyone, and at
CUE we too changed and adapted in order to protect the health and safety of
our community. As we move back to primarily in-person learning and flexible
course delivery for fall 2021, we remain committed to the highest standards of
education, maximizing potential, and offering you a first-class, student-
focused experience that you will remember long after you graduate.
Outside of your studies you will find a small, tight-knit student community,
nationally acclaimed sports teams, superb theatre and music events, and all
kinds of activities in which you can get involved.
As for me, throughout your time with us, you’ll find me around campus
chatting with students, cheering alongside you at a Thunder event, attending
drama and music performances, and taking in the beauty of our campus. So,
when you see me, feel free to come and say hello and introduce yourself.
I very much look forward to meeting you,
Tim Loreman
