=== Vancouver campus === [[File:W43 Tower Vancouver.jpg|thumb|upright=0.8|The School for the Contemporary Arts within the [[Woodward's Building]]]] The Vancouver campus was launched in the 1980s with a storefront classroom. It was the first urban university classroom in British Columbia. A significant portion of funding for the building of the campus came from the private sector. The Vancouver campus has eight buildings spread across the downtown core: SFU [[Harbour Centre]], the Morris J. Wosk Centre for Dialogue, the [[SFU Business|Segal Graduate School of Business]], SFU Contemporary Arts at the restored [[Woodward's Building]], SFU Charles Chang Innovation Centre, SFU Vancity Office of Community Engagement at 312 Main, SFU VentureLabs, SFU Collection at Bill Reid Gallery of Northwest Coast Art, and SFU Contemporary Arts at 611 Alexander Visual Arts Studio. The original campus building at Harbour Centre, a rebuilt heritage department store, officially opened on May 5, 1989. Today, the entire campus serves more than 70,000 people annually. Approximately 10,000 are graduate and undergraduate students enrolled in courses and degree programs based downtown.

The {{convert|130,000|sqft|m2|0|adj=on}} SFU facility is part of the [[Woodward's]] revitalization project. The new facility accommodates the increasing enrolment of students in the programme and new cultural facilities, including the Fei and Milton Wong Experimental theatre, screening rooms, sound studios, and art galleries.
