对于 Red Deer College
Red Deer College is located in Red Deer, Alberta, halfway between Calgary and Edmonton.
It was originally set up in 1964 to serve its small semi-rural community, but the city it serves has since grown into the fourth largest in the province.
Students at Red Dear College can pick from more than 100 programmes, including degrees, certificates, diplomas and skilled trades programmes. The college has a variety of programmes spanning the creative and liberal arts to engineering and trades. All are tailored for student success in the job market.
In 2018, the college became a degree-granting university. Red Dear College continues to grow programmes across a breadth of credentials as it transitions to become a polytechnic university during the next three to five years. Once this transition is complete, it will officially be known as Red Deer University.
It also boasts one of the best athletics programmes in Canada, with the Kings and Queens producing the best overall national competition records of any college in the country. Other teams and mixed sports at the college include basketball, soccer, volleyball, hockey, badminton, cross country running and curling. It is known especially for its excellence in Volleyball.
