It is a central point for all graduate and undergraduate students and employers on the UBC Vancouver campus to meet, connect, network, and build relationships; as well as to research and explore career options. The Centre provides all UBC students with access and connection to workplace learning, mentoring, volunteer and leadership opportunities; and offers career and employment related services to students, academic departments, employers, parents, and alumni.

Working with us
We can help faculty and staff with the recuitment of UBC students through the CareersOnline platform. The Centre also administers wage subsidy opportunities for departments and faculties that hire students at UBC. The Centre also provides mentorship opportunities by matching upper-level students with both a faculty or industry mentor and a lower-level student mentee. From hiring a student to being a mentor, you can play a key role in supporting student success. (opportunities to participate in Jump Start & Imagine)
