Discovery Begins Here

The Faculty of Science is a vibrant community of students and scholars committed to impactful scientific discovery and transformative science education. Our mission is to provide an outstanding educational opportunity for a diverse array of students, from both near and far. Through programs at the bachelor’s, master’s, and doctoral levels, along with a selection of one- and two-year undergraduate certificate programs, we are preparing our students for engaging careers in all sectors of the economy. The Cooperative Work-Study Program, which is one of Canada's longest running cooperative education programs, is available in several science disciplines at the bachelor’s and master’s levels, allowing students to work while they learn, gaining valuable job experience and earning employment income.

The Faculty of Science's Strategic Plan, Discovery Begins Here, charts an exciting course forward for our community. With our campuses on Treaty 4 and 6 territories and the homeland of the Métis nation, the Faculty of Science is making important strides toward reconciliation and scientific education for Indigenous peoples. Our commitment to inclusion and equity makes the University of Regina the perfect home for international and Canadian students alike.
