The Process
A robust consultation process has guided the Master Plan goals, vision and framework.
The Sheridan Campus Master Plan involved extensive consultation with the campus community, including students, faculty, staff and alumni. From one-on-one interviews, to Ideas Workshops, Open Houses and online Campus Compass surveys, this broad-based consultation process was essential to develop a Master Plan rooted in the Sheridan community's vision for the future.
The Planning Team

Urban Strategies has led some of the most significant campus master plans in southern Ontario, including the University of Guelph and Brock University, as well as directed campus plans for Cornell University, Princeton University, and Simon Fraser University.
