The British Columbia legislature established the university on 21 June 1990 with the UNBC Act, and in 1994 the Prince George campus was opened after two years of construction. It sits on the southern end of Cranbrook Hill, overlooking the city from the west. It is architecturally interesting for having apparently separate buildings linked by a hub that is mostly beneath ground level, the Agora building.
Because of its northern latitude, UNBC is a member of the University of the Arctic.
