Mission
Luther College prepares students to be compassionate, creative, and critical thinkers, through academic excellence and a community of care that is rooted in our call to love and serve our neighbours.
Our Values
We are rooted in the Lutheran intellectual tradition and open to insights from other religious, spiritual, and secular traditions. In our Canadian context, we feel especially called to recognize and value Indigenous worldviews, knowledge, and perspectives.
- innovation, creativity, exploration, and critical thinking
- the desire to do our best in everything that we do
- care for all entrusted to us — students, one another, our resources, and the world we live in
- safety, acceptance, respect for all while valuing differences in individuals and among people(s)
- honesty, transparency, and accountability
A Proud History, A Forward Focus
Luther College began in 1913 as a school of “higher learning” with roots in the Lutheran church and has played a role in Saskatchewan’s educational landscape ever since. Incorporated under provincial legislation over the decades, and most recently in the Luther Act of 2018, Luther College continues to evolve while staying true to its purpose. Our commitment to academic excellence and education of the whole person—intellectual, spiritual, social, emotional, and physical—is central to who we are.
As a federated college of the University of Regina, Luther College maintains administrative and financial independence while ensuring our students receive our tradition of academic excellence in the arts, sciences, fine arts, and pre-professional programs. We have a personal atmosphere, individual attention, and sense of community that only a small university can offer.
A Luther College Education
Our education is much more than just training for a job—it’s a way to learn about creating meaning and purpose in life beyond a future career. Rooted in our Lutheran and Christian faith history, we welcome all who want to study here: regardless of ethnicity, background, religion, gender, and orientation. Luther College is an open and inclusive multi-faith campus that embraces diversity. We are an institution that truly believes that meaning and purpose in life comes through serving others to make the world a better place.
We remain anchored in the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Canada, and are proud to be the only Canadian member of the Network of ELCA (Evangelical Lutheran Church of America) Colleges and Universities.
Luther College at the University of Regina is a fully accredited member of Universities Canada, reflecting our commitment to academic excellence and continuous improvement.
While we honour our past, we are focused on shaping the future for the next generation of leaders and learners.
