Aamer Chaudhry

What a beautiful place to live & study.

Lynne Lien

Decided to explore UBC as we’ve heard they have a beautiful campus. Despite it being summer, campus was still very lively. We walked around the athletic areas and there were a lot of people playing sports and walking around. Beautiful campus! We missed the botanical garden by 15 minutes but will be back to check it out!

Kun Z

Beautiful campus! 1 of the most beautiful university campuses in the world. And, this university is a part of the beautiful Vancouver marathon route.

Justin Zhou

UBC is UBC, that's it

Sabrina Fernandes

Everytime I visit this campus I am in awe if how gorgeous it is????

Tsy Mrl

Feels like the most inspiring university campus I’ve ever been!! Wish I could take a course at the sustainable department at some point. Went for a seminar about sustainable fashion during the last sustainable fashion week and the organisation works great! Big highlight on the structure and architecture of the campus, great outdoor and clear signage. You can find a museum, art gallery, chinese garden and if you want to take a little walk in the forest you’ll end up on a little beach on the ocean with a stunning view of the mountains! A dream!!

Leo Lai

Transcendent, iconic, legendary.

My Own Channel by Nitish Tyagi

One of the peaceful location Beginning today, treat everyone you meet as if they were going to be dead by midnight. Extend to them all the care, kindness and understanding you can muster, and do it with no thought of any reward. Your life will never be the same again.

Abo Tufano

A great Campus, where both students and visitors can enjoy a touch of real Canadian architecture and design. A must place you cannot miss when you are in Vancouver.

John Odan

Thankful for beauty that comforts during a pandemic

The University of British Columbia (UBC) is a public research university with campuses in Vancouver and Kelowna, British Columbia. Established in 1908, UBC is British Columbia's oldest university. The university ranks among the top three universities in Canada. With an annual research budget of $600 million, UBC funds over 8,000 projects a year. The Vancouver campus is situated on the unceded territory of the Musqueam people in the University Endowment Lands, about 10 km (6 mi) west of Downtown Vancouver. UBC is home to TRIUMF, Canada's national laboratory for particle and nuclear physics, which houses the world's largest cyclotron. In addition to the Peter Wall Institute for Advanced Studies and Stuart Blusson Quantum Matter Institute, UBC and the Max Planck Society collectively established the first Max Planck Institute in North America, specializing in quantum materials. One of the largest research libraries in Canada, the UBC Library system has over 9.9 million volumes among its 21 branches. The Okanagan campus, acquired in 2005, is located in Kelowna, British Columbia. Eight Nobel laureates, 71 Rhodes scholars, 65 Olympians, ten fellows in both American Academy of Arts & Sciences and the Royal Society, and 273 fellows to the Royal Society of Canada have been affiliated with UBC. Three Canadian prime ministers, including Canada's first female prime minister Kim Campbell and current prime minister Justin Trudeau have been educated at UBC. The main campus is at Point Grey, approximately 10 kilometres (6.2 mi) from downtown Vancouver. It is near several beaches and has views of the North Shore mountains. The 7.63-square-kilometre (1,890-acre) Pacific Spirit Regional Park serves as a green-belt between the campus and the city. Buildings on the Vancouver campus occupy 1.09 million m2 (11.7 million sq ft) gross on 1.7 square kilometres (420 acres) of maintained land. The campus street plan is mostly in a grid of malls (some of which are pedestrian-only). Lower Mall and West Mall are in the southwestern part of the peninsula, with Main, East, and Wesbrook Malls northeast of them. The campus is not within Vancouver's city limits, and therefore UBC is policed by the RCMP rather than the Vancouver Police Department. However, the Vancouver Fire Department provides service to UBC under a contract. In addition to UBC RCMP, there is also the UBC Campus Security that patrols the campus. Postage sent to any building on campus includes Vancouver in the address. UBC Vancouver also has two satellite campuses within the City of Vancouver: at Vancouver General Hospital, for the medical sciences, and at Robson Square in downtown Vancouver, for part-time credit and non-credit programmes. UBC is also a partner in the consortium backing Great Northern Way Campus Ltd, and is affiliated with a group of adjacent theological colleges, which include the Vancouver School of Theology, Regent College, Carey Theological College and Corpus Christi College. The campus is home to numerous gardens. The UBC Botanical Garden and Centre for Plant Research, the first UBC department, holds a collection of over 8000 different kinds of plants used for research, conservation and education. The UBC botanical garden's original site was at the "Old Arboretum". All that remains of it today are trees planted in 1916 by John Davidson. The old arboretum is now home to many buildings including the First Nations House of Learning. The Nitobe Memorial Garden, built to honour Japanese scholar Inazo Nitobe, the garden has been the subject of more than fifteen years' study by a UBC professor, who believes its construction hides a number of impressive features, including references to Japanese philosophy and mythology, shadow bridges visible only at certain times of year, and positioning of a lantern filled with light at the exact date and time of Nitobe's death each year. The garden is behind the university's Asian Centre, which was built using steel girders from Japan's exhibit at Osaka Expo.

Alvin Wong

An interesting collection of spiecemens and some displays. Interesting to walk around and there's a interactive room in the back for a more close up view. It's a little dark and passive for those bringing kids, the little ones might eventually get scared or bored after a long visit. Otherwise, it's an interesting place to go at least once

David Henri

Such a great place to visit. The campus, the little village, the trails around the location. All is really amazing!

Smith P

University of British Columbia has a huge campus. I stayed at Walter Gauge residence during my visit to UBC. If you have your own vehicle, you can easily reach in any corner of the UBC. You can find couple of Korean/ Chinese supermarket around this area. There is 'Save on Foods' shopavailable nearby.

Most beautiful campus ever

craig higgins

What's not to love about UBC

Monica “Monyster” Olmos Blanca

What a beautiful University and the people are nice.

Maret Christiansen

When you go to the same place most of the time, it's very easy to navigate UBC. I have that fortune, but whenever I have a new place to visit, it's a little more challenging, say knowing where to park to get close to the destination. As an older person, this is actually an issue.

Rachel Windsor

This huge world famous university campus is so gorgeous, especially in the fall! It is so colorful everywhere! No wonder it is listed as one of the must-go tourist place in Vancouver as well as a great place to see the fall colors (when the leaves turn different colors in October). I really love their green college (the dorm area for graduate students). It looks like a nice retreat area!!! I wished I could come here for my master!!! Even if I have been to some top universities (e.g., Stanford, Harvard, MIT, etc.), this nice university still wins my heart!!! <3 Highly recommend coming here for a visit even as a tourist!!!

I was there in 1998 for SUPERCON, the national convention for Student Governments from college/university campuses all across Canada...what an amazing time! The last day there our entire team (The Sheridan College SU) opted to check out Wreck Beach (nude)...what an experience! We also went on a dinner cruise around Vancouver Island around sunset...what a spectacular evening!

Tom Ve

Elton Silveira

Beautiful campus.

Jimmy Esteras

Holy macaroni is it pretty here. Don't expect to be able to walk from one end to the other in a few minutes, UBC is huge and you be seeing lots of big screw off buildings. Restaurants galore, one liquor store and not many people out and about because of covid. Trails are great, Wreck Beach is dope and plenty more!

Doug Plant

Warren Field at UBC, expensive parking and very aggressive ticketing.

A Maas

This place is beautiful. The campus is huge and full of endless surprises. Definitely a must see- especially at night when everything is lit up.

William Pryor

I do refer to the university endowment area. I'm very used to that area.

Patrick Mirindi (Pat)

Great area to study

reb lee

such an enjoyable ride with stunning view

Don Adlam

A beautiful school. Every effort seems to have been made to make this a well organized and presented place of learning. The landscaping is gorgeous, and in the plethora of new buildings lie some historic finds dating back to the early 1900's, most of which seem to be in use.

Alex Wang

Not UofT -1 star. /s

Beautiful university, wish my son can study there

sanaz mani

I attended UBC not knowing the horrible things they do to animals! they have many animal testing labs and test 100 thousands of animals each year ,,,, including monkeys! shame on you UBC! I am ashamed of myself for not knowing this when i was there ! i would have started a campaign there...

Jane Chu

I went to UBC for the Covid vaccination and all those who will receive vaccination there also receive free parking at the Thunderbird Parade which is right next door to the Building of Pharmaceutical Sciences. Right at the entrance and all the way through are smiling friendly faces of Westjet staff helping to direct us. This is definitely First Class Premium service, seamless, organized and efficient. The medical personell administering the vaccine are kind and reassuring. We received clear printed information sheets on "After vaccination care" and asked to sit for observation for about 15 minutes. Although no juice or cookies for good behavior, I must rate the whole experience as 5 stars or a 10 out of 10. Now if only other government agencies can run like....????

moe moe1989

Called to ask about a mechanical engineering program and left 10 messeges to set an appointment and never called me back worst university stuff i have ever seen!

James S

Security need to be improved. 2 bikes were stolen in a year.

Ricardo Seah

Aside from being a great educational institution, it is a beautiful university and great spots for photography including some museums and gardens.

Alnoor

Great place to visit. Beautiful campus , can visit various gardeñs and museums. Surrounding area is also nice and scenic and can walk to Locarno beach as well

James Wu

It's just perfect.

Alex Zhang

Beautiful campus (despite all the construction), and many great profs, but unfortunately with the way UBC is handling in-person exams, I must give this one star. They should *not* be making students write exams with hundreds or even thousands of other people in the same room during a pandemic, especially when someone is sick and could very easily pass it to others. With the omicron variant spreading very quickly, this is inexcusable.

Jolanta Prokopowicz

It was a new experience. Two doctors were patient and understanding my fear while getting a needle in my hip.

Derim Kerimggg

Beautiful place.

L L

Beautiful place for events and photos

W Richard

Beautiful campus and the view is so amazing.

Xavier Gauvin

Very nice campus nice to walk around and go see the museum and botanical garden

Marnee Klintworth

Area has changed very much since I was past here. I was coming to work on a construction site unfortunately from Westbrook there are virtually no signs, probably a rule about it, so after a walk down a gravel road, through the woods for fifteen minutes the tendancy would be to turn around and leave. A few signs just so you know your headed in right direction would be helpful...because at one point I almost turned around & headed home. In this case 'wayfinding' is not a priority that's for sure, too bad because UBC is such a beautiful location. PLEASE add signage!!!

Jan

I like its campus, and landscape beside sea

Shaheer Raza

Beautiful university to visit. Just don't come study here.

Mik Redd

4 weeks to process? ALL IS DUE JAN 30. BY THE TIME YOU ANSWER.... IT IS A DEADLINE!?!?!? PLEASE REPLY. Answer your phones please this is absolutely ridiculous. Its 2020. Not 1875.

Yoshi Sereniti

Felt like the Chance of a Lifetime when I got to go to the UBC Summer Science Program once upon a time.

Alex Kinkead

they care about your money but not you

Juan Hernandez

I went for a procedure and was glad everything is fine. The medical staff and admitace people were great. It was a good experience for me. The campus as a whole is a great place to visit as well. Great university to attend and visit.

hemant goyal

It is one of the top universities in Canada. Lots of opportunities in academics, applied studies and research.

Serina Y

Hard to get in, must have high average. Very competitive and a lot of stress, I would say that’s the normal university life.

Ch Isa

Best campus ever !

Daniel Wilson

Clean mostly and fair accomodations, a bit high priced

Jay Vee

Without the ability to download or send maps with "dragging" changes, maps functionality is less useful for me in real time. I use a different app most of the time bcos of that. Oops. Just realized this is in the wrong section. Shoud'a been in Google's Map review section. Nvm, ignore Carry on.

Christopher Winkler

Grad class of 2015 Best school, best teachers, the worst students. Oh and don't forget World's best clothing optional WreckBeach
