What will I learn?

The Labrador Campus of Memorial University (Happy Valley-Goose Bay, Labrador) was officially established in January 2022, building on the 42-year presence in the region. The Labrador Campus is situated on the homelands of the Innu and Inuit and, as such, has a special obligation to the Indigenous Peoples of the region and to working in partnership on Indigenous-driven and Indigenous-led research and education initiatives.The Labrador Campus is home to the School of Arctic and Subarctic Studies (SASS). SASS works in partnership with Northern and Indigenous governing organizations and communities to provide accessible, place-based, Northern-focused, and Indigenous-led educational and research opportunities, guided by priorities for education, research, and socio-cultural wellbeing of the diverse peoples of Labrador and throughout the North. SASS is governed by an Academic Council which has, for the first time at Memorial University, voting representatives from the Nunatsiavut Government, Innu Nation, and NunatuKavut Community Council, ensuring Indigenous needs, priorities, knowledge, languages, and cultures guide our programming and our campus.Graduates from this program will be well-trained to pursue diverse career paths, particularly in Northern locations and for Northern-focused and Northern-led organizations, including in government (Indigenous, municipal, provincial, territorial, federal), academia, business and industry, and the not-for-profit sectors.
