The

Faculty of Forestry

at the UBC Vancouver campus is seeking to hire part-time sessional lecturers in the new

Bachelor of Indigenous Land Stewardship (BILS) program

  • This is an interdisciplinary, four-year undergraduate program created to prepare students to design and implement comprehensive land stewardship systems that are grounded in Indigenous earth-based land ethics - systems that can operate in complex dynamic environmental systems, and inter-governmental environments to foster our next generation of land stewards.

The program includes innovative and diverse courses in areas such as Indigenous ways of knowing, ecology, law and governance, economics, communication, business management, research and data management methods, and community capacity building.

The majority of the courses in the program are multi-access — offered in-person and online — with mandatory in-person attendance for three field courses that occur at the beginning of years 1, 2 and 3.

We are seeking to hire part-time sessional lecturers in the following courses in 2025W Term 1 and Term 2 (Sept 2025 to April 2026).

ILS 101 - Introduction to Natural Resource Stewardship (3 credits)

Introduction to the principles of 'caring for the land' and integrating this ethos into natural resources management, including topics on caretaking for the land, animals, and future generations; sacred places; and the principle of interconnectivity of all living things.

ILS 103 - Decolonization and Natural Resources (3 credits)

Introduction to Indigenous People's history, cultures and experiences, and the effect on control over natural resources, drawing from local to international perspectives, with a focus on how decolonization, as an analytical lens, can transform institutions and Indigenous People's everyday lives.
