The University of Manitoba

The University of Manitoba

The University of Manitoba offers a diverse range of programs, including a full range of professional programs. It offers masters and doctoral programs and opportunities for post-doctoral education in many disciplines. The university has special access programs for those who do not have the background required for university entrance and the continuing education division offers a wide range of professional and certificate programs.

Most students complete the first year of their degree programs in University 1, a year that allows students to take the specific courses required for one or more faculties and schools, and at the same time be exposed to courses in several disciplines or professions.

The University of Manitoba is a research-intensive university and is home to 36 research centers and institutes ranging from applied ethics, aging, cell biology and higher education to health policy, earth observation science and theoretical physics. These centers and institutes provide unique interdisciplinary educational and training opportunities and are a valuable resource for the community at large. Our Technology Transfer Office facilitates the commercialization of university research and links the research expertise of the university with business and industry as well as with government agencies and other universities.

The main campus is in the Winnipeg suburb of Fort Garry; about 12 km from the city center, and the medical/dental campus is located adjacent to the Health Sciences Centro, in central Winnipeg, the province's largest tertiary care complex. Clinical research and medical teaching are concentrated at this hospital and the St. Boniface General Hospital.
