50 Years of Faculty of Science Stories
The University of Calgary is 60 years old! Ten years later, the Faculty of Science was established. Join us as we look back to celebrate the developments and breakthroughs from our 50-year journey.
Some years sparkle, some years shine. For this faculty of science, 2024 was a full-on fireworks display – one of the best years on record. In 2025, we continue to move boldly forward by designing the new science building, expanding groundbreaking research, and graduating more skilled talent – in short, getting science done in a way that drives Alberta’s future.
