The Faculty of Graduate Studies and Research (FGSR) embraces numerous departments and institutes, and offers an impressive range of programs. Although its primary focus is to provide students with mastery of their subject, it prides itself on the accessibility of the faculty and quality of their research and scholarship.
FGSR emphasizes the partnership of teaching and research that provides the essence of any university: the dissemination and expansion of knowledge. Through its programs, research centres, and international activities, FGSR attempts to respond to the ever changing needs of our global community.
Doctoral degrees are regularly offered in Biology, Bio-Chemistry, Chemistry, Computer Science, Education, Engineering, Mathematics, Physics, Psychology, and Statistics.
Master's degrees are offered through the faculties of Arts, Business Administration, Education, Engineering, Fine Arts, Graduate School of Public Policy, Kinesiology and Health Studies, Science, and Social Work.
Research is vital to the University and demonstrates the broad spectrum of our involvement. It can be pure research or applied research, long term in scope or short term. University resources are enhanced in this effort by collaboration with the public and colleagues around the world enable our researchers to examine problems in diverse physical, social, and cultural settings and provide opportunities for scholarly activity at several other Canadian and international facilities. The Office of Research Services is responsible for the administration of research at the University of Regina.
FGSR is a member of the Canadian Association for Graduate Studies (CAGS) and participates in a number of graduate agreements with other Canadian universities.
