MULTI-CAMPUS MODEL
Our multi-campus model offers the flexibility for aspiring and in-service teachers to explore our programs in the communities where they live and work. This empowers learners to pursue their educational goals here and now so they can reach them sooner.

Described by the Vancouver Sun as the "intellectual heart of the city," Simon Fraser University’s Vancouver campus transformed the landscape of urban education in downtown Vancouver. The campus is comprised of multiple facilities clustered in the core of one of the world’s most liveable cities.
