Making the university a great place to research, learn and work
From capital projects and sustainable infrastructure to providing essential campus services, Facilities and Operations supports you from the first day you step on campus to the last.
Important updates
Building access during Winter 2021
Members of the university community will have access to select buildings using their ONEcard. Some buildings may be closed until further notice due to provincial public health measures.
Cleaning during COVID-19
We've adjusted how we clean our facilities. Please do your part by following current public health measures.
