Our state-of-the-art campus occupies more than 37,000 sq. ft. within the iconic Hatch Building on Queen Street and features incredible spaces for study, networking, and collaboration. With an investment of over $4 million in renovations, the campus was designed specifically to accommodate our distinctive programs, so all the tools and resources needed to advance your studies, and eventually your career, are at your fingertips. 

The bright and modern campus has spaces for learning, studying, and student life including the Lake Ontario Lounge, Student Success Hub, multi-faith room, Lake Superior Study, breakout rooms, collaborative and quiet study areas, Lake Huron Lounge, and an outdoor patio.

We are in the final planning stages on the development of a purpose built, new university building. The new building, located not far from the current campus, will include 120,000 sq. ft. of additional academic teaching, administrative, and resource space on four levels, along with a 650-bed student residential accommodation on the upper floors.
