Wilfrid Laurier University is a comprehensive university with campuses in Waterloo, Brantford and Milton. As a multi-campus, multi-community university, Laurier is known for offering unique programs that make each of our campuses their own, while retaining the essence of the strong community culture that binds us together. At Laurier, community is at the heart of who we are. A deep sense of connection and belonging is felt across our campuses and resonates into the communities we call home. Laurier students aren’t content with simply earning a university degree. To them, education is a springboard to something greater: it’s the key to shaping a life, building a community and making a difference.

Our programs provide a broad spectrum of traditional and innovative learning across arts and social sciences, business and economics, music, science, social work and education. Ultimately, they reflect a common purpose: Laurier’s determination to address global social, health and environmental problems and advance creative pursuits. Our world faces complex challenges; Laurier graduates are ready to tackle them. 

In-class learning is only part of the educational equation. Putting knowledge to work in the world is a hallmark of the Laurier experience. Experiential learning opportunities such as co-op work terms and community service are purposefully designed to help students relate what they learn in the classroom to what they experience outside of it. As a result, Laurier students graduate with both the theory and skills needed to succeed in the world that awaits them after university. It’s about forming a foundation of service that our students continue long after graduation.

At Laurier, we measure our success by the impact we make. Purposeful teaching, learning, research, and community experiences enable our students, alumni, staff and faculty to make a meaningful difference in their communities and the wider world. Together, we build knowledge that serves society.

It starts with you. None of this is possible without philanthropic support. Your investment in Laurier gives our students an edge. Donors support students through awards, the faculty who teach them, the facilities in which they learn and the many experiences that make their Laurier experience memorable. Donor impact is a critical ingredient of our university’s continued success. Thank you for your support.
