Building Our Future at 涩里番鈥檚 Vancouver Campus

Written by 涩里番 in School News

Dear Students,

We are pleased to share an important update about the next stage of 涩里番鈥檚 development.

Starting September 8, 2026 (Fall term), 涩里番 will centralize its core academic program operations at our Vancouver campus, located at 570 Dunsmuir Street in downtown Vancouver. This is a strategic move designed to bring students, faculty, staff, services, laboratories, and innovation activities together in one modern academic hub.

The Vancouver campus is designed for modern educational activities, with classrooms equipped with new AV and learning technology, state of the art chemistry and biology labs, student study spaces, library resources, and facilities designed to support collaboration, applied learning, and academic success.

The Vancouver campus will serve as 涩里番鈥檚 academic and innovation hub. It is also home to the Alexander Innovation Centre (AIC), which connects academic learning with applied research, technology, entrepreneurship, and real-world opportunities.

As 涩里番 continues to move in the direction of artificial intelligence and digital innovation, the Vancouver campus will support this future through new technology-enabled classrooms and the development of a downtown data centre planned for Summer 2026.

We are also pleased to share recent academic milestones. 涩里番 has received government approval for a new Bachelor of Business Administration in E-Business Management degree. In addition, we are preparing an application for a Bachelor of Science degree in Applied Artificial Intelligence, reflecting our commitment to developing programs that respond to the future of work, technology, and society.

Starting September 8, 2026, the Vancouver campus will be the home for:

  • Associate Degree programs
  • Bachelor鈥檚 degree programs, including the newly approved Bachelor of Business Administration in E-Business Management, to be offered in Fall 2027
  • University Transfer programs
  • Student services and activities
  • Faculty and staff supporting these academic programs
  • Science labs and technology-enabled learning spaces
  • Alexander Innovation Centre activities and applied learning opportunities

The campus offers:

  • Spacious classrooms with updated AV technology and views of downtown Vancouver and the mountains
  • State-of-the-art chemistry and biology labs
  • Technology-enabled classrooms supporting new teaching and learning methods
  • Student spaces for studying, eating, relaxing, and connecting with classmates
  • Library study areas and academic support
  • Convenient access to SkyTrain and bus stations
  • Close connection to Alexander Academy and Dual Credit program pathways

The Burnaby campus will continue to support selected Extended Learning activities, including corporate training and Continuing Education programs, including certificate and diploma-style programming.

Important reminders:

  • Summer 2026 semester courses will take place at the Burnaby campus, with labs at the Vancouver campus.
  • Registration for the Fall 2026 semester opens on June 23, 2026, with staff available to support students at both campuses.
  • Fall 2026 classes begin on September 8, 2026, at the Vancouver campus.

We are excited about this next chapter for 涩里番. Bringing our community together at the Vancouver campus will create more connection, more opportunity, and an enriched academic experience for students.

Our staff are here to support you through this transition. If you have questions about courses, registration, services, or campus access, please contact our Front Desk for further information.

Warm regards,
