Resources for students

The Peer Academic Advisers offer advice and access to resources to incoming graduate students and lively, collegial exchanges with students from many countries and backgrounds. The Peer Academic Adviser at the Doctoral level is a significant source of information and support for incoming PhD students. Her role as a community builder is unparalleled in the Department. The Peer Academic Adviser at the Master’s level is devoted to attending to the concerns and questions central to the experiences of master’s students in EDCP. They stay tuned into what goes into building and sustaining collegial relations amongst diverse participants in the Department. The Peer Advisers are available for support and questions with respect to:
  • Office space
  • Day-to-day UBC logistical questions
  • Technology resources
  • Writing, research, and assignment related questions
  • Relationships between students and their advisers
