UBC launches new Student Strategic Plan to support the student experience

January 26, 2026

UBC has launched a refreshed Student Strategic Plan (SSP), establishing a shared vision for the student experience over the next three years. This revised plan was developed through consultations with students and staff across UBC Vancouver and UBC Okanagan to better align with the current post-secondary landscape.

The SSP aligns closely with UBC’s Strategic Directions 2025-2030 and other key institutional frameworks and is aimed at enhancing student support through cross-portfolio collaboration.
