Vancouver Summer Program Joins UBC Extended Learning

October 16, 2023

UBC Extended Learning (ExL) is pleased to announce the Vancouver Summer Program (VSP) has joined its program offerings.  The VSP is a four-week experiential academic program that has been attracting international undergraduate students for almost 10 years.  The program provides students with the opportunity to experience living on the UBC campus while studying courses taught by UBC faculty instructors. 

The VSP offers over 60 globally relevant course packages in a range of disciplines including science, architecture, nursing, arts, business, education, medicine and more.  In addition to academic courses, the program includes sociocultural activities specific to Vancouver and its surroundings, encouraging students to engage in cross-disciplinary learning and develop their understanding of Canadian culture and values. There are two sessions offered from June through to August.

UBC Extended Learning works with programs and faculties to create and deliver educational offerings that meet the career and personal needs of our communities, including alumni, current UBC students and learners of all ages. Together, we provide outstanding learning opportunities, bringing UBC excellence in academics, teaching and research to the communities we serve, and strengthening UBC’s contribution to society, industry and government.
