We were delighted to host MP Stephen Fuhr at @ubcokanagan.bsky.social this week to share some of the cutting edge research taking place on our campus in areas like artificial intelligence, critical minerals, and wildfire risk mitigation. So proud of our outstanding students and faculty researchers!

September 30 is a day to honour and uphold Survivors and Intergenerational Survivors of the Indian residential school system, and to commemorate those who didn’t return home.

I was delighted to welcome @dianagibson.bsky.social to UBCO to discuss opportunities for economic development in the BC Interior through research, innovation & education. A brief tour of our FiLTER Lab highlighted bridges w/ industry + our faculty’s expertise in economic geology & critical minerals

I was deeply saddened by the news of Dr. J. Peter Meekison's passing. Early in my career, I knew him as someone generous with his time who went out of his way to support new faculty like me. A great loss for the academic community & everyone who knew him.
