Campus Master Plan

The University of Regina’s main campus grounds are situated on Treaty 4 land and within Wascana Centre – a unique place in Canada and one of the country’s largest park systems, overseen by the Saskatchewan Provincial Capital Commission. Working closely with Wascana Centre and in alignment with the release of University’s strategic plan, each U of R Campus Master Plan builds on previous plans. It encompasses the main campus, the campus east lands, and the College Avenue Campus. The planning process provides an opportunity to engage the campus community, stakeholders, and the public in envisioning the longer-term development of our campus. The consultations include public meetings, online surveys, hallway displays, and stakeholder meetings. U of R Campus Master Plans are then released pending the University's Board of Governors approval of each new plan.

The Campus Master Plan addresses the physical situation and provides guidance on the quality of future development. It does not deal with everything that happens on campus. For example, it is not a maintenance plan, nor is it an operational or management plan. It focuses on the types of uses that would be appropriate on campus and how they should be sized and arranged — physical things such as: academic, residential, and service buildings; landscapes; roads; paths; and parking. It also indicates where built facilities should not go; and identifies places reserved for open space and ecological protection.
