Each term, our Program Coordinators match projects with a number of SFU courses on the Burnaby, Vancouver and Surrey campuses. 

The original CityStudio course was provided through SFU’s Semester in Dialogue, and ran until fall 2020. The Semester in Dialogue at CityStudio program was a semester-long immersive experience that provided students with the opportunity to co-create experimental projects in interdisciplinary teams. 

Civic Innovation Change Lab was another SFU studio course provided in collaboration with RADIUS SFU, Beedie School of Business, and Semester in Dialogue.
