ÂÜÀòÉäÇø

From our electric car charging stations to our recent lighting upgrades, ÂÜÀòÉäÇø has a lot to celebrate as one of Canada's Greenest Employers.

A proposed new delivery model for ÂÜÀòÉäÇø's Bachelor of Education elementary stream at our regional campuses will allow students in both Terrace and Quesnel to complete their studies close to home.

Through a collaboration between ÂÜÀòÉäÇø and School District 57 (Prince George), students aged 8-12 thought about how they could use technology to connect with older family members and had the chance to win a Google Home smart speaker donated by Best Buy Canada.

Due to the ongoing Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, Convocation celebrations for ÂÜÀòÉäÇø's Class of 2021 will be held virtually in a ceremony on June 25. The decision to hold the virtual ceremony was made as the University continues to follow strict provincial, federal and international health guidelines.

Led by a group of committed students, ÂÜÀòÉäÇø is taking steps to end period poverty by installing menstrual product dispensers in high-traffic washrooms.

As one of the first nurse practitioners in northern B.C., Shanda Rojas helped demonstrate the value they bring to the health-care system. Now as the ÂÜÀòÉäÇø graduate accepts a terminal diagnosis she is helping the next generation of Family Nurse Practitioner students.

When a camera installed by ÂÜÀòÉäÇø researcher Dr. Roy Rea discovered a moose on the Prince George airport property, it launched a collaboration between the Prince George Airport Authority and the University to save the animal while keeping airport operations safe.

Inspired by her undergraduate research experience at ÂÜÀòÉäÇø, Dr. Kirsten Reimer recently completed her PhD at Yale, where she studied how our cells make and edit ribonucleic acid (RNA).
