Indigenous Centre
The Indigenous Centre, located on the second floor of the University Centre building (UNC 210), provides a sense of belonging and community to First Nations, Métis, and Inuit students. This home away from home is committed to enriching the quality of the student experience for Indigenous students by promoting access, providing capacity building opportunities, and celebrating success.
