UBC-O Summer Scholars Program


The Summer Scholars Program (July 13 - 26 or 29 with the Vancouver extension) is a non-credit course that will give students a solid foundation in sustainability and the science behind environmental issues. Students will be guided through field research by experts, and gain valuable hands-on experience while they:

  •  complete a final study project, perfect for college applications
  •   participate in a fully supervised program of classes, field trips, and recreational activities
  •   explore Canada and meet students from around the world on UBC's Okanagan and Vancouver campuses


The program is open to students between 16 and 18 years of age, entering one of their final two years of recognized high-school study. Students must be capable of undertaking academic instruction in English and must be in good academic standing (unofficial transcript required). With only 40 spaces available for the Summer Scholars Program, students should apply early.
