Campus Networks

network-iconCampus networks

UBC campus is a large place; there are several existing networks that bring together faculty, staff, and students from across campus who are working to connect UBC research and learning with communities. Following is a brief list of a few networks; additional connections and networks are continually being developed.

While these networks are primarily focused on building connections across the university, as community-engaged networks these groups value involvement and connection from those beyond UBC.

Please email community.engagement@ubc.ca if you’d like to add or suggest additional networks.

Community Engaged Scholarship Group

Community-engaged scholarship includes faculty in teaching, research and/or service activities that involve a mutually beneficial partnership with a community. Join this group of community engaged scholars from across campus to share examples of CES at UBC, build connections between disciplines/units doing CES, share scholarly, reflective approaches to engaged research and teaching. The group meets once a month during the academic calendar. For more information, contact Kat Cureton.
