The development will make UBC the premier university in Canada in coal education and will have a significant impact on the provincial economy. UBC has received permission from the Universities Council of B.C. to build a Coal Research Centre. The council had already approved asa new program a fourth-yearoption in coal engineering. The federal Ministry of State forScience and Technology has indicated support forcoal research at the new centre. The com- bined support of Victoria and Ottawa will better prepare the province to exploit its huge reserves of coal. Coal large revenue earner for B.C. Coal is already a large revenue earner in the province.
