More than 55 undergraduate degree opportunities, including 16 joint majors, in the Arts, Applied Science, Commerce, Education, Nursing, Planning, and Social Work, along with continuing education courses and programs from 10 areas of interest, are offered at the University of Northern British Columbia.
In 2004, the University of Northern British Columbia (UNBC) was ranked by Maclean痴 Magazine as Western Canada's premier 'small' university and as the 7th best primarily undergraduate university in Canada, and the National Post reports that UNBC is among the top 20 universities in the country with respect to research intensity, which is measured by research activity, income, and publications. Research activities at UNBC are primarily focussed on areas and issues of distinct interest to Northern BC, like offshore oil and gas and resource and wildlife management, and in 2004 research funding surpassed 10ドル million for the first time in school history. UNBC is noted for its smaller and more interactive classes and individualized learning. Upwards of 61% of the University痴 upper level courses have less than 25 students. Recently, UNBC has been in an expansion phase adding the Bentley Centre that connects the new teaching facility to the rest of the campus, and the construction of the Northern Health Sciences Centre, which will house the Northern Medical Program, is currently underway. UNBC痴 campus has a unique architectural design because its buildings appear, from the surface, to be separate but are, in fact, linked via a partially underground 'hub.'

The University of Northern British Columbia has over 55 undergraduate degree opportunities, including 16 joint majors, in the Arts, Applied Science, Commerce, Education, Nursing, Planning, and Social Work. One of the more notable of the University痴 offerings is the 哲orthern Medical Program? which is a 4-year degree from the University of British Columbia's Faculty of Medicine offered at the University of Northern British Columbia.

Through this program, the University hopes to create health care professionals who will stay and work in BC's northern and rural regions where access to proper medical care is often lacking. This program has much support in Northern BC with over 20 communities having partnered with UNBC to ensure it succeeds. The University also provides for 21 graduate degrees of which 2, Natural Resources and Environmental Studies and Psychology, are at the doctorate level as well as offering graduate diplomas and certificates in First Nations studies.
