Great Northern Way Campus
The Great Northern Way Campus (GNWC) in Vancouver, British Columbia, is being developed as an integrated educational and industrial neighbourhood focused on digital media and technology. The land is owned by Great Northern Way Campus Trust, a consortium of four academic institutions in British Columbia’s Lower Mainland (the University of British Columbia, Simon Fraser University, Emily Carr Institute of Art + Design and the British Columbia Institute of Technology).
The GNWC Trust has two principal activities: operating the Centre for Digital Media, which offers the Masters of Digital Media graduate degree, and revitalizing its land parcel to bring together business, academia and the general community into an emerging district for the digital and creative sectors. Eight projects, which include both new construction and renovations of existing buildings, are underway and several businesses in the digital media sector currently rent space on the campus.

Famous quotes containing the word northern:
“For generations, a wide range of shooting in Northern Ireland has provided all sections of the population with a pastime which ... has occupied a great deal of leisure time. Unlike many other countries, the outstanding characteristic of the sport has been that it was not confined to any one class.”
—Northern Irish Tourist Board. quoted in New Statesman (London, Aug. 29, 1969)
