Objectives – Facilities Renewal Strategy

• Determine capital priorities within an affordable financial model.
• Accommodate program growth and improved student services, with first priority on graduate space.
• Resolve the future of Traill College, as required by the Board of Governors in 2001.
• Increase efficient use of existing space.
• Incorporate priorities of provincial government policy agenda.
• Reduce deferred maintenance backlog.
• Attract and retain students and faculty.

Priority Areas for Capital Expansion

• Adding academic space, assuming constant undergraduate enrolment. Additional space is needed, driven in part, by current shortages, changes in classroom teaching methods and significant increases in graduate studies.
• Reclaiming as much as possible ground floor space in Bata Library for library purposes.
• Additional space for student activities; partially consolidating and improving student services in a more central facility.
• Improvements to existing College academic space.
  • Refurbishment and expansion of the Athletic Centre.
