Our executive team of five graduate students, together with the GSS council, committees, and staff, lead the society to provide support, resources, political advocacy and social events to connect grad students across campus with each other, the university, and the government.
The Graduate Student Society of UBC Vancouver represents and advocates on behalf of all UBC Graduate Students to the University, the Government, and the public. We provide academic, professional, social, and recreational services to our members, and act as stewards of the Thea Koerner House Graduate Student Centre.
Our constitution, policies, bylaws, and strategic plan together compose the core objectives, principles, and rules that guide our day-to-day work and codify how the GSS functions. Everything we do is built upon these core documents that outline our work and how we run the Society.
Our constitution outlines the fundamental objectives of the Society to support graduate students, from removing financial and physical access barriers to graduate education at UBC to ensuring adequate housing and childcare, being the voice of graduate students on campus, and coordinating interdepartmental graduate student activities
Our Strategic Plan identifies the Society’s current areas of focus and its key initiatives arising from these areas, both to improve the lives of graduate students and improve the GSS as an organization
