TRU?s Kamloops and Williams Lake campuses are located on the traditional territory of the Secwepemc peoples, in British Columbia?s southern interior. In Kamloops (from the Secwepemc word for ?meeting of the waters?), the main campus overlooks the junction of the North Thompson and South Thompson rivers, from which the university gets its name.

Located in the Sahali area on the city?s southwest slopes, TRU is walking distance from commercial districts and residential areas, and next door to Kamloops? largest recreational facility, Tournament Capital Centre. A wide variety of outdoor adventures and cultural events are minutes away, year-round. In the heart of the Cariboo, students can begin study in academic programs, or in various career and trades program options.
