UNBC sets research income record

Dec 4, 2025 | 10:20 AM

PRINCE GEORGE — The University of Northern British Columbia set a new research income record in 2024, securing $19.6 million.

That’s according to the latest edition of Canada’s top 50 research universities produced by Research Infosure.

This 10 per cent increase from 2023 moves UNBC up two spots in the overall ranking to number 39 in Canada.

UNBC’s Interim President Dr. Bill Owen says “this milestone demonstrates how UNBC’s faculty, students, staff and partners are advancing knowledge that matters to northern BC and beyond.”

Of note, UNBC saw a 350 per cent in the research from not-for-profit sources, including foundations and community organizations. It’s the second largest percentage in the country, regardless of institution size.
