WELCOMING ENVIRONMENT

Gain a New Perspective

We all benefit when we learn from one another — enriched by the sharing of culture, knowledge, and ideas. UWinnipeg proudly welcomes learners around the world. Each year, we honour our community’s incredible diversity at major celebrations like Cultural Night, the Graduation Pow Wow, India Centre Dinner, and Pride Week. These activities are valuable occasions to learn something new. And by embracing these opportunities, you are getting ready to discover other worlds and make new friends.

11% of our first-year students self-identify as Indigenous: First Nations, Métis, or Inuit.
