At Laurier, the community is at the heart of who we are. A deep sense of connection and belonging is felt across our campuses and resonates in our home communities. Laurier students aren’t content with simply earning a university degree. To them, education is a springboard to something more significant: it’s the key to shaping a life, building a community and making a difference. 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 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.
