Overview

When students join the University of Alberta’s Year One Foundation Program, they become U of A students from day one. They receive academic support that prepares them to enter a bachelor’s degree program in their second year, along with a “soft landing” to studying in Canada. The University of Alberta’s Year One Foundation Program represents the first year of a four-year bachelor’s degree. It is designed for students who have course deficiencies and do not yet meet the academic entry requirements for their chosen degree program. Upon successful completion of the program, students progress directly into the second year without losing time on their path to graduation. Why study this program? The American Religious Traditions Honors program is right for students who are interested in working closely with faculty mentors in labs and community settings on real-life challenges, or interacting with peers who have similar academic interests and passions, as well as those who want to gain research experience for graduate studies or refine their writing for a professional career. This top-ranked program equips students with unique tools to make sense of religion in our world. Teacher-researchers work at the forefront of their fields and bring that expertise to the classroom. This major can also be taken as part of a Bachelor of Arts (Honors) degree. Why study at the University of Alberta? The Faculty of Arts boasts one of the most diverse Arts programs in Canada, offering top quality educational opportunities that prepare students for successful careers in every sector of society. With over 900 distinct courses in the humanities, social sciences, and fine arts, students will find an academic pathway for them. Nationally and internationally recognized faculty members bring rich insights to the classroom through unique perspectives drawn from their research and advancement of human knowledge. Academic excellence, innovative problem-solving, and experiential learning opportunities beyond the classroom, such as Community Service-Learning and Arts Work Experience programs, will give students the tools to thrive in a diverse and increasingly complex workplace.
