Saint Mary’s University

Saint Mary's University is one of Canada’s top primarily undergraduate universities, known for strong teaching, hands-on learning, and a supportive campus community. With more than 6,000 students, Saint Mary’s offers programs in Arts, Commerce, Science, Engineering, and Environmental Studies, with opportunities for co-operative education, undergraduate research, and experiential learning across disciplines.

Students benefit from small class sizes, accessible professors, and a campus culture focused on mentorship, leadership, and career readiness. The Sobey School of Business holds both AACSB and EQUIS accreditation, placing it among a small group of internationally recognized business schools worldwide, while Science and Engineering students gain valuable lab, fieldwork, and research experience early in their degrees.

Located in Halifax, a safe and student-friendly coastal city, Saint Mary’s offers an ideal balance of academic excellence and quality of life. Our campus, located in Mi’kma’ki, the ancestral and unceded territory of the Mi’kmaq, is known for its welcoming community, green spaces, and strong sense of belonging — helping students build the confidence and skills to succeed both during and after university.
