UCI Academic Calendar 2026-2027
Without you knowing the various academic and non academic activities that will go on in the school, you will not be able to follow up with school activities. It will be as a car without fuel. Find out information on the UCI Academic Calendar for 2026-2027 below.
An academic calendar includes the criteria for degrees and programs, course descriptions, and rules and regulations.
The undergraduate (bachelor’s) degree programs at The University of Winnipeg are detailed in the undergraduate academic calendar.
Graduate (master’s) programs have their own dedicated Graduate Studies Academic Calendar.
The University considers multiple factors in setting the academic calendar, including efforts to avoid conflicts between major religious holidays and “Move-In” dates for campus resident halls.
