CANADA'S ONLY EXCLUSIVELY LIBERAL ARTS UNIVERSITY
St. Thomas University is a traditional liberal arts college in the purest sense—we focus exclusively on the humanities and social sciences. Students and faculty engage in the study of cultures, languages, behaviour, social justice, global awareness, communications, and the history of human interaction. Our graduates go on to successful careers and are accepted into advanced degree programs in universities around the world, including Oxford, Harvard, Fordham, University of California-Berkeley, and Baylor.
OUR TEACHING PRIORITY
St. Thomas University is unique because teaching is our highest priority. A professor will always be in the classroom, teaching, engaging and inspiring. Learning is a collaboration, and our professors work to create a community where students are active participants. Your professors are distinguished scholars, authors and public commentators, and their research strengthens their teaching. You may even have the opportunity to participate in your professors’ research projects.
Our small class sizes—often as few as twenty—will encourage you to participate in discussions with your peers and professors. Through a variety of approaches to teaching – lectures, readings, class discussions, group activities, debates, research assignments, out-of-class writing and online discussions—you will develop communication skills, as well as learn to think critically about what you read, hear, and experience.
