Course Registration Information
Registration Appointment Details
- Registration will take place in June and July 2025. You will receive an email from Enrolment Services (ES) 1-2 weeks before your registration period opens. The email will contain details about your registration appointment.
- Your registration appointment is based on your academic average (cumulative UBC average for continuing students, admission average for new students) and your class standing.
- Appointments are in Pacific Daylight Time (PDT). Double-check your registration time, especially if you are outside of the province or country.
How to Register for Courses
Platform
- You will use Workday Student System for registration.
- The course schedule is available and can be viewed in workday.
- You can access the Workday Tutorials to familiarize yourself with the system, and how to register in your courses.
Mining Timetables Changes
- Timetables are now a visual tool only (not for direct course registration). You must register for each course individually.
Planning Ahead
- Use the STT visual and course roadmap to create saved schedules (similar to the previous worklist in SSC).
- Separate saved schedules are required for Winter Term 1 and Winter Term 2.
Note: It is best to register using a web browser for optimal functionality, as the Workday mobile app does not support the full registration process.
Complementary Studies
- As an Engineering student, you must take five categories of complementary studies: Professional Ethics (APSC 450), Communication requirements (3 credits of first year English and 2nd year technical comm course APSC 201), Engineering Economics course (Mine 396), Humanities and Social Sciences electives (6 credits), and Impact of Engineering (3 credits). Many of these courses are in the curriculum already (like APSC 201, APSC 450 and MINE 396) and students need to register in them. However, there are two categories of complementary studies for Mining students where they have some choice: Humanities and Social Science electives (6 credits), and Impact of Engineering on Society, Sustainability and Environmental Stewardship (3 credits). A list of complementary studies courses can be found here
