Cape Breton University

Cape Breton University (CBU) was born as a result of Nova Scotia's provincial government's attempt to create an institution of higher learning in the Cape Breton region. The result was the consolidation of St. Francis Xavier Sydney Campus, which opened in 1951 as an extension campus of St. Francis Xavier University, and the Nova Scotia Eastern Institute of Technology, which was founded in 1968. Since its establishment in 1974, the University saw an expansion of university-type programs and instruction and in recognition of this transformation the 'University College of Cape Breton' changed its name to 'Cape Breton University' in 2005. CBU is dedicated to keeping its student per teacher ratio low in order to enhance the educational experience by enabling increased interaction between teacher and student. The University ranked second in the Maclean's Magazine' new 'The University Graduate Survey' which asked recent post-secondary graduates from across Canada to rate their overall satisfaction with their educational experience. In 2004, CBU opened a campus in Cairo, Egypt for Egyptian students; the new campus allows students to earn credit for the first 2 years of their degree before transferring to Canada to complete the remaining requirements.
