Mission

SFUs mission is to advance knowledge through teaching researching and engagement with the community. We are an open inclusive university whose foundation is intellectual and academic freedom. Our scholarship unites teaching and research; we celebrate discovery diversity and dialogue. Our students and communities can expect teaching that is personal and learning opportunities that are lifelong. We champion the liberal arts and sciences and pioneering interdisciplinary and professional programs. We are a university where risks can be taken and hold initiatives embraced. Upon these foundations we will engage all our communities in building a robust and ethical society.
