Trinity Western University

In 1957, a little gathering of individuals had an uncommon vision to build a Christian college in Canada. Today, TWU is Canada's biggest free Christian liberal expressions establishment, with a thorough aggregate enrolment of 3,600 understudies and more than 26,000 graduated class in more than 80 nations as far and wide as possible.

The vision started in 1957 when the Evangelical Free Churches of America (EFCA) selected a council to investigate securing a liberal expressions school in the Fraser Valley. David Enarson, a Christian instructor and church pioneer, with a dream for a certify Christian college, was one of the directing individuals from the board of trustees. Individuals from the board of trustees acquired the Seal Kap dairy cultivate in British Columbia's Fraser Valley and created arrangements to manufacture the school. Trinity Western University began as Trinity Junior College in 1962.

Since its first days in 1962, Trinity Western has held a remarkable vision for Christian liberal expressions and sciences training in Canada. The principal president Dr. Calvin B. Hanson (1962-1974) helped shape the early vision. After two decades, with 800 understudies enlisted, the school attained to two vital points of reference. In 1984, under the authority of TWU's second president, Dr. R. Neil Snider (1974-2006), Trinity Western was allowed full enrollment in the Association of Universities and Colleges of Canada (AUCC), and in 1985, the British Columbia council renamed the Trinity Western College Act the Trinity Western University Act, creating TWU as a college.

The following developments for the University included joining ACTS Seminaries and the School of Graduate studies, which offer experts and doctoral projects in philosophical studies, advising brain research, and humanities.
