Acadia University is recognized as one of Canada’s premier undergraduate institutions. Academic innovation

and a personalized learning environment have garnered the university a reputation for success. Acadia is

nestled in the Town of Wolfville, amongst orchards and vineyards in Nova Scotia’s Annapolis Valley. A short

walk from the shores of the renowned Bay of Fundy, the area offers a small-town setting with a relaxed

lifestyle and outstanding cultural and recreational opportunities. With a progressive commitment to

sustainability, the region offers locally crafted artisan food and beverage with many communities embracing

organic, fair trade, and farm-to-table ideals. The Annapolis Valley is home to highly developed agricultural,

agri-food, bio
- technology, and manufacturing industries that offer growing employment and research

opportunities. It is also home to 14 Wing Greenwood, the largest air base on the East Coast. Southern Nova

Scotia is surrounded by ocean and therefore has an experienced fishing industry, marine research, and ocean

technology companies. Halifax, which is only 50 minutes from Wolfville, provides a wide variety of

opportunities and connections academically and commercially in terms of research.
