In Canada, at least when I was younger, there was a sort of hierarchy of post-secondary institutions, named honestly for their mandates: Technical Institutes, Colleges, Universities, ranging from good, focused, short-term (1-2yr max) trades education, to somewhat white-collar education and business training (2-3 years) without little to no research focus, to full-on graduate/post-graduate tracks (4 yrs undergrad BsC/BEd etc. and beyond) doing the typical research expected of Universities.

If this “University” has truly cut out anything considered arts/humanities or “liberal arts”, then they should be required to drop the facade and just call themselves a tech institute or something.
