Recognizing the Traditional Territories of Our Host.
JDC West acknowledges that the University of Regina and its federated colleges are on Treaty 4 and Treaty 6 — the territories of the nêhiyawak, Anihšināpēk, Dakota, Lakota, and Nakoda peoples, and the homeland of the Michif/Métis nation.
We recognize that we benefit from the privilege of gathering, learning, competing, and building community on these lands. We honour the enduring presence, knowledge, cultures, and contributions of Indigenous peoples, whose relationships with these territories continue from generation to generation.
As part of our ongoing commitment to reconciliation, we share a responsibility to listen, learn, strengthen relationships with Indigenous communities, and help build a more respectful and inclusive future for current and future generations.
Welcome to the University of Regina—where we believe education is about more than earning a degree. Through experiential learning, groundbreaking research, and a deep connection to our community, we empower our students to turn curiosity, knowledge, and drive into action.
Although our roots go back more than a century as Regina College, we became an independent, degree-granting university on July 1, 1974. Today’s U of R, along with our federated colleges—Campion College, Luther College, and First Nations University of Canada—offers comprehensive, post-secondary education to more than 16,600 students. With over 97,000 alumni, our graduates are making a positive difference in Saskatchewan and around the globe.

More than 60 years ago, business education at the University of Regina began with the establishment of the School of Administration in 1965. In 1969, it awarded Canada’s first Bachelor of Administration degree, laying the foundation for what would eventually become the Paul J. Hill School of Business.
Today, the Hill School of Business offers a comprehensive Bachelor of Business Administration program with five majors: Accounting, Finance, General Business Studies, Human Resource Management, and Marketing. Students can also access cooperative education, experiential learning opportunities, diploma programs, and undergraduate certificates.
Experience for yourself all that the Hill Levene School of Business has to offer while you Experience JDC West in Regina, Saskatchewan.
The City of Winnipeg
Vogue calls Winnipeg, “an absolute must-visit destination,” while National Geographic has listed it as “one of the best trips on earth.” With world-class performing arts, an incredible culinary scene and attractions that include polar bears swimming overhead and an architectural marvel that celebrates human rights, Winnipeg keeps moving from the centre of the continent to the centre of attention.
The Forks has an incredibly unique public market along with the world’s most stylish – and longest – skating trail along the Assiniboine and Red Rivers, a trail that will be open in Winter 2021 during JDC West. Performances from Canada’s Royal Winnipeg Ballet, the Winnipeg Symphony Orchestra and Royal Manitoba Theatre Centre enchant, while so much of the city is awash with gorgeous parks and elm-canopied neighbourhoods.
Just on the horizon we have the Winnipeg Art Gallery’s $65-million Inuit Art Centre – which will house the world’s largest collection of contemporary Inuit art and Canada’s Diversity Garden – a massive $75 million horticultural attraction that celebrates humanity’s history with plants. Close to 62 percent of Manitoba’s population lives within Winnipeg’s census metropolitan area of 811,874 inhabitants, so Winnipeg dominates the provincial economy in a way few other Canadian cities do. Winnipeg has always been economically strong and diverse. We have nurtured a robust workforce that is skilled, talented and productive.
Winnipeg is also home to The Canadian Museum for Human Rights, Canada’s first national museum located outside of the Capital and the first museum solely dedicated to the evolution, celebration and future of human rights.
