NAC joins University of the Arctic

Nunavut Arctic College has joined the University of the Arctic, a network of programs from about 20 institutions available to students across the circumpolar world via the Internet.

Though NAC joined in June, Education Minister Peter Kilabuk made the announcement last week.

“As the university grows and develops, Nunavut students will have access to a bachelor-level program focusing on circumpolar studies,” Kilabuk said. “They will also have increased opportunities to develop and participate in research activities at the postgraduate level.”
