Trinity Western University

Trinity Western University is a private Christian university in Langley, British Columbia, founded in 1962 as Trinity Junior College and granted university status in 1985. It is linked to the Evangelical Free Church of Canada and is organized as a liberal-arts university with a community covenant, not as a public research flagship.

Schools include arts, media and culture, business, education, nursing, human kinetics, and graduate studies. Graduate programs cover education, counseling psychology, business, and nursing. The university has used a Laurentian Leadership Centre in Ottawa for public-affairs semesters.

Enrollment is about 4,000 to 5,000 students, mostly undergraduate, with a few hundred graduate students and a mix of Canadian and international students. The faculty is small compared with public universities. Alumni work mainly in education, nursing, ministry, and business in western Canada.

Graduate study is mainly coursework master's degrees in small cohorts, not a broad PhD culture. The academic year follows a North American semester calendar. The Langley campus lies in the Fraser Valley, about an hour from Vancouver, and retains a residential character that graduate students share only in part.

In the Grad School Navigator directory, Trinity Western University lists 1 master's program, in business & management.
