GRANT MACEWAN COLLEGE


'Grant MacEwan College' is an educational institution located in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. As of 2006, the institution refers to itself in all publicity materials simply as 'MacEwan' without the word college, reflecting a change in direction towards fields normally associated with universities in Canada.
It was established in 1971, and named after Dr. J.W. Grant MacEwan, author, educator, and former lieutenant governor of Alberta. Its main campus comprises 5 city blocks in downtown Edmonton. Satellite campuses are located in the Mill Woods and Jasper Place neighbourhoods, and at the former Alberta College campus in the city centre.
Grant MacEwan College recently became an accredited degree-granting institution, and currently offers bachelor of arts, nursing and commerce degrees. The college expects to add additional degrees such as music, science, and a bachelor of social work (BSW) by 2008.
Its sport and wellness centre is reputed to be one of Edmonton's finest facilities. The Griffins, MacEwan's athletic organization, compete in intercollegiate sports.
MacEwan will open a new Health Learning Centre on the City Centre campus site in September 2007. The facility will feature state of the art learning and nursing simulation technology.
