The name 'Kwantlen' comes from the Kwantlen First Nation in whose traditional territory the University is located.

Chief Joe Gabriel of the Kwantlen First Nation bestowed the name on the institution, resulting in Kwantlen First Nation and Kwantlen Polytechnic University having a long history of partnership.

n̓ƛ̓ən̓ (Kwantlen), xwməθkwəy̓əm (Musqueam), q̓ic̓əy̓ (Katzie), SEMYOME (Semiahmoo), sc̓əwaθən (Tsawwassen), qiqéyt (Qayqayt), and kwikwəƛ̓əm (Kwikwetlem) Peoples.

Kwantlen Polytechnic University values current and emergent relationships with Indigenous communities and is embarking on a pathway to addressing systemic change.
