University of Victoria, Royal Roads University, Camosun College, Justice Institute of B.C. team up to form campus in Langford, B.C.
A unique collaboration between four post-secondary institutions in British Columbia will establish a new campus on the Vancouver Island city of Langford.
The project includes an almost $78-million investment from the provincial government, while Royal Roads is contributing $19-million for the land purchase and capital costs and Langford about $27-million in infrastructure. Statistics show the region has lower-than-average direct post-secondary transition rates at 38 per cent compared with the provincial average of 51 per cent.
Anne Kang, the minister of advanced education, says the new model brings the strengths of four institutions closer to people who need it.
