| Alumni

UPEI alumnus and former UPEI Student Union president Dana Kenny is trekking across the Canadian North as part of the Canada C3 expedition. Canada C3 is a signature project for Canada’s 150th Anniversary of Confederation in 2017. The centrepiece is an epic 150-day sailing journey from Toronto to Victoria by way of the Northwest Passage. Dana, a member of the Prime Minister's Youth Council, is aboard the ship for about three weeks.

The University of Prince Edward Island prides itself on people, excellence, and impact and is committed to assisting students reach their full potential in both the classroom and community.

UPEI is the only degree granting institution in the province and is proud to be a key contributor to the growth and prosperity of Prince Edward Island. UPEI is located on the ancestral and unceded territory of the Mi’kmaq People.
