Faculty of Graduate Studies
We take a student-centred approach to create a meaningful graduate student journey.
As a University of Calgary graduate student, you are a part of the Faculty of Graduate Studies (FGS). While your teaching faculty provides the home for your research, courses and scholarly activities, we are here to answer your questions, support, guide and empower you in your graduate journey.
