阿尔伯塔大学始建于1908年,位于加拿大阿尔伯塔省省会埃德蒙顿市中心,北萨斯喀彻温河南岸,阿尔伯塔大学是加拿大最佳的研究型大学之一,是加拿大G13大学联盟的成员,多年来在不同的大学排名上与多伦多大学、麦吉尔大学、西安大略大学、不列颠哥伦比亚大学一起稳居加拿大前五位。随着阿尔伯塔省经济的繁荣和教育投入的增加,阿尔伯塔大学的目标是在2020年成为全世界最好的20所大学之一。
阿尔伯塔大学校园内的各种设施十分完备先进。主校园占地89公顷,还有5,000公顷校外科研用地,拥有400个科研实验室,包括全加最有实力的激光实验室、最居前沿的扫描电子显微镜实验室,两套NMR设施和一些农业科研站点。大学图书馆是加拿大第二大科研图书馆,人均图书拥有量居全加第一。由于所在省份阿尔伯塔省是加拿大著名的石油产地,不但经济上较其他大学优越,相关科研及课程也位居加拿大前列,尤其以石油工程最为出名。
Founded a century ago, the University of Alberta is one of the top 100 teaching and research universities in the world serving more than 36,000 students with 11,000 faculty and staff. The U of A has an annual budget in excess of $1 billion and attracts more than $480 million in external research funding. It offers close to 400 undergraduate, graduate and professional programs in 18 faculties。
The University of Alberta’s vision since its inception more than 100 years ago has been to be one of the world’s great universities for the public good. In the words of our first president, Henry Marshall Tory, the U of A is an institution directed toward the “uplifting of the whole people” in Alberta, across Canada, and around the world. This vision endures in the university’s current vision document, Dare to Discover, and our academic plan, Dare to Deliver。
Created – in the words of its first president, Henry Marshall Tory – "for the uplifting of the whole people," the university is committed to inspiring the human spirit through outstanding achievements in learning, discovery and citizenship and building one of the world's great universities for the public good。
