The First Nations University of Canada provides an opportunity for students of all nations to learn in an environment rooted in Indigenous cultures and values. The university is a unique space where the spiritual power of knowledge is recognized and where that knowledge is respected and promoted. In following the paths given to us by the Creator, Indigenous peoples at the university have been contributing to higher education in Canada for more than 40 years.

Students from across Canada and around the world come to the university to specialize in Business, Indigenous Health Studies, Science, Indigenous Linguistics, Indigenous Studies, and much more. The First Nations University of Canada also occupies a unique role in Canadian higher education, where students can learn in the context of their own traditions, language, and values.  For Indigenous students the university is a place to explore, reclaim, and revitalize their own traditions, so they can walk proudly and wisely today.
