Profile
At St. Thomas More College (STM) you can discover a world of opportunities. As the leading Catholic college in Western Canada, we offer the greatest diversity of courses, excellent student services and campus ministry, and innovative programs.
St. Thomas More College was founded by the Basilian Fathers in 1936. STM is the heart of the Catholic community at the University of Saskatchewan, and the campus ministry team is vital to the development of the college community. STM is home to a beautiful chapel where Roman Catholic Mass is celebrated. Students do not have to be Catholic to join STM or take STM classes. We don’t force religion on anybody, but we do believe it is important for our students to have an opportunity to integrate faith into their university careers.
While STM students may choose any major offered by the College of Arts and Sciences at the University of Saskatchewan, our teaching focus is the liberal arts. We offer classes in the humanities and social sciences. At some point in your degree, you will take liberal arts classes, even if you are majoring in a natural science discipline or in a pre-professional program.
While we maintain our own administration and receive our own provincial grants, we are academically integrated with the University of Saskatchewan.
We offer on-campus University of Saskatchewan credit classes; STM professors are fully certified – they are members of the faculty of the College of Arts and Science and of University Council; any on-campus student may take our classes, which are taught by STM professors; any on-campus arts and science student may register through STM (such a student will become an STM student, but will still be an arts and science student at the University of Saskatchewan).
