Universities and Colleges in Yukon Territory

Yukon is the westernmost Canadian territory and has breathtaking wilderness, excellent education and other opportunities, ample natural resources and welcoming people. It borders British Columbia, the Northwest Territories, as well as Alaska.

Yukon has low crime rates, is safe for international students and provides an excellent quality of life with the capital city, Whitehorse, which appeared in the Guinness Book of World Records (2013 edition) as having the least air pollution of any city in the world.

Located in Whitehorse, Yukon has one tertiary institution, Yukon University, a member of the University of the Arctic. It is a publicly-funded institution that acts as a "hybrid" university, serving as a research hub and offering degree programs while also providing vocational training and trades programs that are found in Canadian colleges. If you are a nature lover, Yukon’s towering mountains, boreal forests, rushing rivers, and enormous glaciers will make you fall in love with it, and you will adore choosing Yukon Territory as your study abroad destination.
