Future Global Leaders on-campus

Spend an unforgettable summer at UBC 

UBC Future Global Leaders is a pre-university program for high school students ages 15-18 that attracts ambitious, motivated students from across Canada and around the world. Explore your academic passions and interests at a top university, make lifelong friends, and prepare for your future beyond high school.  

Our two-week on-campus programs run in July and August. They feature academic courses and mini schools taught by UBC professors and affiliated instructors at a first-year university level – but without the exams!
