Programs
Since my degree at Burman, I have gone on to work in development and humanitarian settings around the world. As a student, I never dreamed I would develop the skills and gain the experience I have now. But the professors at Burman, both in the International Studies (IS) program and other departments, believed in me before I realized my own strengths. Without a doubt, it is the mentoring and encouragement you received at Burman that is one of the best parts of the education offered there.”

Burman University is situated on the hilltop of Lacombe, a charming university town in Central Alberta. Lacombe is just outside Red Deer, and is situated between Edmonton International Airport (by about an hour) and Calgary International Airport (by about one and a half hours).
