We are Alia Hamieh and Andy Wan, assistant professors of Mathematics at UNBC. We are organizing UNBC Mathematical Science Discovery Week, a summer school aimed at students between grades 10 and 12 from Prince George high schools. This one-week event will take place from August 3rd to 7th and will be hosted virtually. The main objective for this summer school is to provide an encouraging and collaborative environment for a diverse group of high school students to explore areas in Computer Science, Mathematics and Physics that are not normally part of their regular high school curricula.
Attached to this email is a promotional poster and an information sheet about the event. You might already have this information since we have sent it to your high school principal at the beginning of April. We hope that you could help us introduce this opportunity to as many students as possible.
If this event is of interest to your students, please circulate the attached promotional poster within your high school. This event is completely free for students. All that is required for participating students is a computer and internet connection capable of video conferencing.
To register the students who have expressed interest, please compile the list of interested students (up to 6) from your high school and email it to either one of us at: alia.hamieh@unbc.ca or andy.wan@unbc.ca. Please register by May 15, 2021 to ensure availability for your students to this event. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.
Thank you so much for your time and consideration in promoting this event. We look forward to hearing from you and meeting your students this summer!

Greetings from the UNBC Student Recruitment Team:
We hope this email finds you well and that you have been able to enjoy a bit of spring after the long winter!
We have been busy planning a month-long Virtual Open House series that we are calling Explore UNBC.
Starting on May 17, we welcome all future students (including those who have applied and those who have yet to apply), high school counselors, parents and guardians to attend a series of events designed to introduce them to UNBC. We encourage students to register for one or more events by visiting [unbc.ca/exploreUNBC]Explore UNBC webpage. We have a number of exciting events planned such as Meet Your Program, Learn About Student Life and Supports, a Virtual Campus Tour and much more! Take a look at the full calendar of events:
The first 200 students to register will receive a special UNBC gift, sent directly to them! And every week we will be giving out a grand prize. You can find all this information by visiting our Explore UNBC webpage.
Feel free to share this email widely, print the poster in the attachment, and if you have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out to the UNBC Recruitment team!
Looking forward to hosting your students at Explore UNBC 2021!

The link to apply to UNBC is:
www.unbc.ca/apply AdmissionsUndergraduate Admissions If you are looking to apply for a post-secondary certificate, diploma or Bachelor's degree, you'll be applying for Undergraduate admissions. If you are currently in high school, attending college or university and want to transfer, or even just take some courses, this admission information is for you.
www.unbc.ca Attached is a pamphlet that you can provide to interested parents/students/staff regarding UNBC Awards & Financial Aid Information and the upcoming UNBC Award Competition deadlines, or feel free to forward a portion of this email along to parents/students.
As always if students miss applying for admission by the December 2021 or March 1st, 2022, they can still apply for admission right up to the start of the September 2021 Semester… but it is best to apply for admission earlier so they can also be considered/apply for UNBC awards and be admitted early enough to register for the courses they want.
