University of Alberta

The University of Alberta is a public teaching and research university based in Edmonton, Canada. Founded in 1908, it operates across five campuses in Edmonton and Camrose, including the French-language Campus Saint-Jean. Its teaching and research span the humanities, sciences, creative arts, business, engineering, and health sciences.

The university describes its purpose as discovering, sharing, and applying knowledge through education, research, creative activity, and partnerships. For OutcomesLab, it is a relevant institutional affiliation for W. David Pierce, a University of Alberta professor emeritus of sociology and one of the authors credited on the seventh edition of Behavior Analysis and Learning: A Biobehavioral Approach. That affiliation identifies where he worked; it should not be read as a claim that the university published or endorsed the textbook.
