Renewing Seneca College's King Campus

McGuinty Government Invests in Colleges and Universities

Ontario is helping Seneca College build new classrooms, state-of-the-art learning labs and study spaces for students at their King Campus.

This project will provide more space for students to learn and help Seneca College renew and expand its community safety and health services training facilities. More classrooms and labs will allow new courses to be offered at the King Campus to better serve the growing needs of York Region families.
Increasing the number of student spaces at colleges and universities is an important element of Putting Students First, the McGuinty government's plan to provide quality, affordable postsecondary education and training to Ontario families.
