University of Alberta Faculté Saint-Jean
- University of Alberta Faculté Saint-Jean
The Campus Saint-Jean is a faculty of the University of Alberta located in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada at 84 Avenue and Rue Marie-Anne Gaboury (91 Street). It became a part of what is known as the Campus Saint-Jean (CSJ) in September 2005 in order to better represent the expansion it has undergone since being acquired by the University of Alberta in 1977.
Approximately 650 students of the University of Alberta study full-time in French at the Faculté Saint-Jean, making it an integral part of the University, both culturally and academically. The Faculty is very diverse and draws from la francophonie, the province of Québec, French Canadian communities, French Immersion Programs and elsewhere to make up its student population and staff.
The Faculty has four program sections: sciences, fine arts and languages, social sciences and education. There are also several programs that are offered as joint programs with the other faculties such as engineering, nursing and business administration. This wide range of studies makes it a very dynamic learning environment. It benefits from small classes, proximity to the teaching staff and being immersed into the surrounding Francophone community.
The Faculté Saint-Jean has a long history in Alberta and began originally as a catholic school for boys in 1908 known as the "Juniorat Saint-Jean".
