Message from the Dean
This April, we begin celebrating the 10th anniversary of our Faculty, the only Faculty of Environment in Western Canada. With interdisciplinary programs and research, our students, faculty, staff, alumni and donors are making meaningful change happen locally and globally in the classroom, at work, and in communities.
The academic accomplishments of the work in the Faculty are stellar, and in many cases, garner international acclaim. Much of our research is community-engaged, not simply as an “add-on” but as core to our mission. Our students develop critical thinking, participate in experiential learning and, as evidenced in our alumni profiles posted here, are thriving in their careers post-graduation.
We will be hosting a variety of activities throughout the year, from public talks, to environmental stewardship activities and more. Please join us for the official 10th Anniversary launch on April 24th, 2:30-5:30PM on our Burnaby Campus, where we will celebrate and honour both individual and collective achievements. Everyone is welcome but registration is required. RSVP here.
