Centre for Student Involvement & Careers

The Centre for Student Involvement & Careers is here to support students from their first day on campus until after they graduate in the following ways:

Orientation and peer mentoring

Through orientation and peer mentoring, the Centre supports new students to become successful university learners. It is a central point for all graduate and undergraduate students and employers on the UBC Vancouver campus to meet, connect, network, and build relationships; as well as to research and find career options.

Building your career

The Centre provides all UBC students with access and connection to workplace learning, mentoring, volunteer and leadership opportunities. The Centre also offers career- and employment-related services to students, academic departments, employers, parents, and alumni.

Career Advisors are professional UBC staff who can discuss career options, job search strategies, grad school applications, and more with you.
