Our New Building
Construction is underway at our history home at 371 Bloor St. W. in Toronto, which is on track to welcome us back in 2021.
Designed by our own Don Schmitt ’70 of Diamond Schmitt Architects, the renewed UTS will also strive to be sustainable and energy efficient.
More space for more great experiences
A 33% increase in space will mean 120,000 sq. ft. for learning and growing.
New Black Box theatre
With 120 seats, a dedicated backstage and dressing rooms, students can take to the stage in a space worthy of a standing ovation.
Environmental features
A green roof over the new Auditorium, a cistern for collecting stormwater, and energy-efficient features throughout the building all go towards making the new UTS building greener than ever.
A sky-lit atrium
Connecting the historic building with the new addition is the new sky-lit atrium—the heart of the school.
New Auditorium
A full-accessible state-of-the-art Auditorium, with 700 seats and expanded backstage spaces, will be home to assemblies, performances, competitions, and countless memories.
Media Lab and Creativity Centre
A space for interdisciplinary creation and technological exploration.
Heritage Restoration
The heritage facade of the building, which was built in sections between 1910 and 1924, is undergoing careful heritage restoration to preserve and protect its architectural significance and structural integrity.
Athletic spaces
A new double-gym, paired with a cardio/weights room and athletic therapy room will get our athletes, gym classes, and teams in great shape for healthy activity and competition.

Hear from UTS Alumni
The UTS Alumni Association supports UTS and helps present and future alumni develop and sustain meaningful, lifelong connections to UTS, to each other and to the broader UTS community. The UTS Alumni Association envisions a thriving UTS supported by a diverse, inclusive and representative group of alumni who have a strong association with the school and with fellow alumni from across the years.
Going to UTS had a really big impact on me and I like the idea of trying to maintain a connection with that and give back a little bit and have some sort of impact on the people who are coming in and on the legacy of how UTS is continuing to change
UTS continues to be a big part of my life long after graduation, and I’m excited to be able to give back to the school in a number of ways. I’m still in touch with my peers, friends, and even my alumni mentor, and grateful for the guidance and support they have given me since graduation.
I credit a lot of things that I have been able to do in my life with what I learned at UTS. I think that it is important to give back to institutions and people who have helped you so it feels good to come and reconnect and continue feeling connected to a place that helped you a lot.
This is where I came into my own. When I came to UTS what I found was a place where students and families from different backgrounds were joined by one common link – the desire to strive for excellence. I believe there is truly something for everyone at UTS.
People really want to make the UTS experience better and it’s not about ego, title or having something fancy on your resume or being powerful; it’s about looking for the best way to do things and working as a group and putting our heads together in a way that’s cooperative and I’m not sure I’d be able to find that with any other group.
One of the most important things about my experience at UTS is how I have always been encouraged to try new things to figure out who I a want to be. I have been exposed to such a diversity of opportunities to find my passion. That meant a lot.
