Project examples

Armed with $3.2 billion from the federal and provincial governments and other sources, Canadian universities are upgrading, expanding or building new state-of-the-art campuses. Our universities are committed to investing in facilities in order to attract the best and the brightest students from around the world.

The Knowledge Infrastructure Program – the federal government’s $1.3-billion contribution – provides the much needed funding for infrastructure and bricks and mortar. But “KIP” goes further. It reinforces the foundations for education, research and the future.

KIP’s 183 building projects at 79 universities are laying foundations for the future.
