The University of Northern British Columbia showed off some of their programs and clubs during its Discovery Day.
Students were able to walk through the Telus Student Street to see various booths, classes and buildings showing what current students do on a day-to-day basis.
Interim President Dr. Bill Owen said a day like this isn’t just important for the prospective students.
“Talking with some of the parents, some of them are still surprised at the gem that we have here, and it’s good to be able to showcase what we have in our own backyard.”
Dr. Owen noted one of the opportunities undergraduates have is getting involved in research at an early stage, and work on publications with faculty members.
He highlighted the importance of having this institution, as it supports communities throughout northern B.C..
