Announcements

Earlier this fall, we shared plans to update UBC Okanagan's academic structure in support of our newly defined core academic focus: resilient people, communities, economies and environments in support of a sustainable future. As we consider the future academic structure, we aim to preserve what is working well in the current structure and identify opportunities for improvement.

We are pleased to announce a call for nominations for the Open Education Resources (OER) Excellence and Impact Awards.

Earlier this year, UBC Okanagan defined its academic priorities around a core focus: resilient people, communities, economies and environments in support of a sustainable future. With a strong foundation now in place, we have been exploring a two to three-year strategy to advance these priorities and support our vision for the future.
