Faculty of Science
In the UPEI Faculty of Science, our strong focus on developing a personal experience for our students, in the classroom or in a teaching or research laboratory setting, is a point of pride.
This is science at its best—a cycle of learning and analysis leading us to answers and better questions. This is science at UPEI.
