Shad UBC

The University of British Columbia

The University of British Columbia (UBC) is located on the traditional, ancestral, and unceded territory of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam) People. Consistently ranked among the top 20 public universities in the world and recently recognized as North America’s most international university.

A world class centre for teaching, learning and research, UBC is a place where innovative ideas are nurtured in a globally connected research community, with unparalleled opportunities to learn and discover in unique ways.

Surrounded by the beauty of the West Coast, UBC’s location inspires a pioneering mentality: openness to fresh, bold new ways of thinking. More than 400 hectares in size, the stunning campus is surrounded by forest on three sides, an ocean on the fourth, with a breathtaking view of the mountains.
