University of Saskatchewan
Edwards School of Business
Over 100 years ago, the University of Saskatchewan (USask) awarded the first undergraduate accounting degree, making us one of Canada’s oldest business schools. Today, the Edwards School of Business (Edwards) is an internationally accredited academic institution with the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB).
Edwards is situated on Treaty 6 Territory and the Homeland of the Métis and we are one of the top research-intensive, medical doctoral universities in Canada. USask is home to world-leading research in areas of global importance, like water and food security.
Our mission at Edwards is to “develop business professionals to build nations.” As part of the Edwards advantage, you can add real-world, practical experience to your resumé through one of our many experiential learning courses. You can also get practical experience in your field of study at the undergraduate level through the Edwards Co-operative Education option or at the graduate level with the Edwards MBA Internship Program.
We have a number of awards for new students that you can apply for, in addition to general USask scholarships, bursaries, and awards. In 2019, continuing Edwards students received over $1.4 million in scholarships and awards.
