Learning Spaces

Places we learn

The spaces students learn in can have an impact on their academic learning experiences. UCalgary is committed to ensuring our learning spaces are accessible, technology-enabled, and comfortable for all students across our campuses. 

The Learning Spaces Team includes multiple internal units, including Registrar's Office, Teaching and Learning, Campus Planning and Architecture, and IT to ensure spaces are clean, inviting, and ready to support exceptional learning opportunities.
