"A cornerstone of campus life, dedicated to promoting health and supporting student learning, community and wellness on campus."
In August, SAIT launched a four-year redevelopment project to replace Campus Centre with a new building. LINK brings you an insider's look at what's happened so far — and what's next!
The north end of the SAIT / Alberta University of the Arts / Jubilee C-Train station remains open. Some 60% of people coming to campus enter from here, and work is ongoing to keep this route accessible despite construction.
Saitsa’s administrative offices are operating out of the Saitsa Resource Centre (MC107, Stan Grad Centre).
The Odyssey Café’s temporary home during construction is NN120 (Senator Burns Building).

Oki, Âba wathtech, Danit'ada, Tawnshi, Hello.
SAIT is located on the traditional territories of the Niitsitapi (Blackfoot) and the people of Treaty 7 which includes the Siksika, the Piikani, the Kainai, the Tsuut’ina and the Îyârhe Nakoda of Bearspaw, Chiniki and Goodstoney.
We are situated in an area the Blackfoot tribes traditionally called Moh’kinsstis, where the Bow River meets the Elbow River. We now call it the city of Calgary, which is also home to the Métis Nation of Alberta.
