Our Facilities
Where you learn shapes how you learn. Whatever your program, our world-class facilities will inspire you.
The Alberta Water and Environmental Science Building puts researchers and their students at the centre of southern Alberta’s living and learning laboratory where they study critical water and environmental issues like climate change. The Centre for Financial Market Research and Teaching is a 48-station facility on both Lethbridge and Calgary campuses and the best-equipped academic trading room in western Canada. With direct connections to global financial markets, it gives students experience in derivatives and equities trading and commodityrisk management.
At the University Centre for the Arts you can enjoy interesting shows, art exhibitions, theatre productions and musical performances all year long. The Simulation Health Centre provides nursing students with exceptional hands-on learning experiences. The lifelike mannequins simulate birth, have heart attacks and even respond to medication, enabling students to practise their skills and critical decision-making in a safe and interactive way. Studio One (a world-class recording studio), new Pro Tools Editing Suite, Digital Cinema Suites (professional editing and finishing rooms), individual art studios for senior students, and University Recital Hall (acoustically-tuned performance space) are just a few of the extraordinary fine arts learning spaces.
The University of Lethbridge Art Gallery (ULAG) houses one of the most significant art collections in Canada, made up of more than 16,000 works. Through exhibitions, events, public programs, internships in the Hess Collection, satellite and online galleries, the ULAG collection is an important teaching and research tool. The University Library houses approximately one million holdings. In addition to providing you with resources to help with your projects, assignments and research, the library boasts some of the best study spaces on campus: a nearby Starbucks and a spectacular view. With a climbing wall, fitness centre, triple gymnasium and an indoor 200-metre track, the 1st Choice Savings Centre for Sport and Wellness is your place to stay fit and have fun!​
