University of Alberta Values

Excellence in teaching that promotes learning, outstanding research and creative activity
that fuel discovery and advance knowledge, and enlightened service that builds citizenship;

The centrality of our students and our responsibility to provide an intellectually superior
educational environment;

Integrity, fairness, and principles of ethical conduct built on the foundation of academic
freedom, open inquiry, and the pursuit of truth;

A diverse, yet inclusive, dynamic collegial community that welcomes change and seizes
opportunity with passion and creativity;

Pride in our history and traditions, including contributions from Aboriginal people and other
groups, that enriches and distinguishes the University.
