Partners

DFP partners with a variety of industry, community, and non-for profits. Many of our faculty work with partners to advance their research, while our CREATE grad program requires partners to provide design problems for student projects.

We are actively looking for partners to propose projects for our next CREATE grad student cohort to work on! Email us today to receive a prospectus and to see how you can get involved: dfp-admin@dfp.ubc.ca
