St. Thomas University

History

The origin of St. Thomas University dates back to 1910. At that time, the Most Reverend Thomas F. Barry, Bishop of Chatham, invited the Basilian Fathers of Toronto to assume charge of an institution in Chatham, New Brunswick, providing education for boys at the secondary and junior college levels. The institution was called St. Thomas College.

Education

Every single class is small and intimate. Capped at 60 students, our average class size is only 26 students, and upper year classes are even smaller. Classes are discussion and debate based, and professors are able to get to know their students and offer individualized attention. 99% of our full-time faculty have their Ph.D or highest degrees in their fields.

Student services

We believe career development is more than your major or a job. It involves your development as a whole person throughout your time at university and beyond. The Career Development Office helps students in any year navigate the career development process as they start, progress through, and complete their degrees

Housing services

To make sure your time in residence is a memorable experience, there are groups of residence leaders that live in the building. Residence advisors and house committee members work together to facilitate your transition to residence and support you during your time here.

Every year UNB Libraries hosts a (free) half-day Library Showcase to highlight new resources and services to St. Thomas University faculty.
