The Skylight Model

Skylight is uniquely situated to fill an important gap between central UBC units and Faculty of Science departments.

With general guidance from the Associate Dean Academic, we work closely with our embedded experts in the departments and with the Centre for Teaching, Learning and Technology (CTLT) to support faculty – a proven model that is being adopted by other institutions. We also have collaborations external to UBC and regularly consult with the Science Planning for Future Committee (SPFF).
