===West Campus=== [[File:Alberta Children's Hospital 3+4.jpg|thumb|left|The [[Alberta Children's Hospital]] is an affiliated hospital of the university, located in the West Campus.]] In 1995, the Province of Alberta gave the University of Calgary a large tract of land west of the Main Campus with the understanding it would be used in the future to advance the university's mission, vision, values and priorities. About a third of the size of downtown Calgary, the land overlooks the Bow River valley and covers {{convert|80|ha|acre|0}} east of [[Shaganappi Trail]] between 16th Avenue (TransCanada Highway) and 32 Avenue N.W. The western campus lies on mostly hilly terrain, near the Bow River. It is adjacent to the main campus of the university, and is home to the [[Alberta Children's Hospital]] and Child Development Centre. With the recent boost in annual funding, the university has begun a development plan in order to make better use of the remaining space. Dubbed the University District, the area is to include a mixture of residential and commercial development. Part of the West Campus was leased for the new Alberta Children's Hospital and a new [[Ronald McDonald]] House. Currently, the campus is only halfway developed and is considered building room for the future. From this location, it is possible to see the entire university and also [[Downtown Calgary]].<ref name="ucalgary.ca">{{cite web|url=https://www.ucalgary.ca/map/|title=University of Calgary Campus Maps|date=2010-07-06|publisher=Ucalgary.ca|access-date=2011-03-10}}</ref>
