Volunteer & lead
Do you want to develop academic coaching skills and improve your own study habits, make friends with new students from all over the world, enhance your leadership and mentoring skills, and have a great time? Join the International Peer Program as a peer leader: our senior peers, group leaders, and student managers have the best jobs on campus.
Meet friends & get involved
Each year the International Peer Program welcomes new international students to UBC by matching them with a peer mentor from their faculty and providing a host of opportunities for academic coaching, social events, intercultural communication, and community involvement.
