General Faculties Council

The General Faculties Council (GFC), subject to the authority of the Board of Governors, has oversight for academic affairs including research. Examples include academic and research plans, academic quality (pedagogy and learning), academic programs, curriculum, policies, academic regulations, research and scholarship, and awards.

The General Faculties Council derives its power from the Alberta Post-Secondary Learning Act and from the Board of Governors.

The General Faculties Council acts as the voice of the academic community, providing vision and leadership to the academic community and bringing expertise and academic perspective to the governance of the University.
