It's important for you to familiarize yourself with the Faculty's continuation and promotion requirements, and know what you need to graduate from UBC. In addition, know your rights and responsibilities as a student.

Making the most of your university experience and preparing for a career after graduation means getting involved outside the classroom as well as in your classes. There are countless ways to make the most of your LFS and UBC experience!

Submit your inquiry via email.

For question about career paths and opportunities for LFS students, Allison, LFS Career Strategist, is here to help. Go here to see the different career resources available to you or book a career advising appointment.

Roxana would love to chat with you, and you can book advising appointments with her by sending her a quick email.
