Bishop's University

In 1843, the founders of Bishop's University declared their intention 'to offer to the country at large the blessing of a sound and liberal education'. Today, our primary focus remains the liberal education of undergraduate students. We aspire to be the institution of choice for outstanding young people seeking academic excellence and a comprehensive undergraduate experience in a community that instils confidence, courage and a sense of responsibility in its students. At the heart of the Bishop's experience is close interaction between professors and students, within the classroom and elsewhere, in research, scholarship and creative activity. We seek to engage our students in their own intellectual and social development by offering programs of study and extracurricular activities that foster intellectual curiosity and a life-long commitment to learning.
