UBC has launched a project to improve and transform its scheduling pattern and academic course scheduling model. In alignment with the University’s core purpose and the new strategic plan, Shaping UBC’s Next Century, this project will work collaboratively with the scheduling community to develop innovative, flexible and future proof solutions to support transformative teaching and learning.

“The strategic plan has identified education renewal, program redesign, practical learning, interdisciplinary education and student experience as key strategies.  We will be teaching differently in the future and our infrastructure must support that work.” 

- Dr. Pam Ratner, Vice-Provost and Associate Vice-President, Enrolment and Academic Facilities
