UBC has grown into one of Canada's finest universities, one that in so short a time already ranks among the world's 40 best. Measured by any criterion-the intellectual calibre of our students, the quality of faculty teaching and research, the professionalism of our staff-UBC is an outstanding university, and plays a vital role in the cultural, social, and economic development of our region and our country.
In recent years UBC has seen dramatic changes. Enrolment has grown from 31,000 students in 1995-96 to more than 45,000 today, with a corresponding expansion of UBC Vancouver's academic core, including new buildings dedicated to science and engineering, forestry, the health sciences, and the library. A University Town is emerging on our campus, bringing lively residential, social and cultural diversity to a more complete community.
