At Cape Breton University, we push the limits of innovation and thought leadership to create an international academic environment and develop a sustainable future for our island.

Cape Breton University (CBU), which has almost 5,500 students from more than 55 nations, is surrounded by beautiful natural beauty, lively culture, and hospitable communities.

We are dedicated to the future of Cape Breton Island, creative programmes for economic development and sustainability, and leadership in Indigenous learning.

CBU offers students the benefit of exceptional chances for experiential learning and undergraduate research in a welcoming academic setting as a university that is committed to quality in teaching and learning.

Our programmes typically perform substantially above the national averages in both faculty-student interaction and service learning across a wide range of academic disciplines.
