Inclusive Leadership + Respectful Engagement
UBC Applied Science Strategic Priority Area
We are committed to UBC’s vision of “a community in which human rights are respected, and equity and inclusion are embedded in all areas of academic, work and campus life.”
The University’s two main campuses are located on the traditional, ancestral and unceded territories of the xwmə0–kwəyˇəm (Musqueam) and Syilx (Okanagan) peoples. It is our responsibility to demonstrate an authentic commitment to advance truth & reconciliation, and to recognize the intrinsic value of traditional knowledge in academia and beyond.
