What to Expect

This diverse learning environment allows for unique viewpoints and more robust conversations in and out of class. Student Support Students are strongly supported throughout their time at University Canada West. Undergraduate students will work in learning teams and are supported by Writing and Numeracy Coaches to develop a strong foundation. Graduate students are able to speak with faculty and university staff members who are attuned to current business practices, career opportunities and industry changes. The Student Services Office assists students with any other inquiries and also offers program planning, career planning information along with guidance on managing course load, or degree completion. Interaction with the Faculty Class sizes are purposely kept small to maximize the interaction between each faculty member and his or her students. This student to teacher ratio allows students to ask more questions and have more in-depth discussions. Additionally, faculty members are always available for discussions or extra help outside of class. Student Activities The University, in conjunction with the Student Committee will develop events throughout the year to enhance the student experience. Various campus activities and fundraisers are planned for students. Online Campus students residing in or visiting the Vancouver area are also welcome to attend these events. |
